Water

Refreshing Grace
flow over me
cover me
sweep away
the weariness
the heart-sore sighs
the sin-seasoned grief
Fill me
with new life
Renew my soul
with Your merciful tide
Cause me to rest
afloat
on Your waves
even as
I sink
within Your depths
Overflow
from my heart
spilling Living Water
cool and clear
to quench
others’ thirst
even as
I am satisfied
in You
in Your grace
Come for me
Overcome me
Wash me
away
Take my place
until
“Not I -
but Christ”
flows pure and true
