THE WATER

THE WATER

THE WATER
BEADING
ON THE JAR
THAT MARY
HAD CARRIED FROM THE WELL
CAUGHT THE ANGEL'S AURA
AND GLOWED

FEAR NOT
FEAR NOT
AND AFTER HE HAD SPOKE
ASKED ONLY ONE QUESTION
HOW
GOD WANTS INTELLIGENT LOVERS
NOT ROBOTS

SHE LISTENED
AND SAID FIAT
I LOVE THE LATIN
BETTER THAN THE GREEK
OR HEBREW
SHALL I EVER AMOUNT TO MUCH

HOW OFTEN DO WE PRAY
MY WILL NOT YOURS BE DONE
FIAT
I ACCEPT

THE LEGEND IS
THAT THE WATER ON THE JAR
FELL TO EARTH
WHISPERING
THE DRY LAND SHALL BEAR FRUIT

AND MARY SET THE EXAMPLE
FOR ALL THOSE
WHO CARRY CHRIST WITHIN THEM
SHE CARRIED HIM
TO A PERSON IN NEED

YOUR WILL NOT MINE BE DONE
FIAT
I ACCEPT
