Living Water, I come to You,
Perceive my desert dryness and dearth;
Pour out on me your refreshing rain,
Welcome water to a sun-scorched earth.
Bread of Life, feed once more,
Satisfy this malnourished soul;
Strengthen these bones that are growing weak,
This sin-sick spirit that wants to be whole.
Good Shepherd, guide, provide and protect,
Me from harm continue to keep;
Your lamb I am, your cherished one indeed,
This day take care of your sheep.
You, Who are the Door, do open the door,
Reveal where to go, what to do;
Close those ones that for this season are not,
Show me those that I am to walk through.
Dearest Resurrection and Life, that You are,
Breathe, Breath of Life, once more;
Bring to life the dead areas in my world,
Dead dreams, hollow hopes restore.
These things I pray, All-Sufficient One, As this new day, I enter, navigate; I desire you, need you, for without you, All will be desperate and desolate.
Amen
