May we become as wet as Gideon’s fleece
With water Jesus’ body holy makes
That from our sin and death we find release
As He our thirst for righteousness will slake.
When He descends in Jordan’s water, bathes,
He cleanses all creation’s water then
To make it means through which His Spirit saves,
No matter where we are, no matter when.
When we drink water changed to wine, then Blood,
His water, Blood, from side will enter us,
And we can stand where He Himself has stood
As Pilates of this world we will not trust.
For we to Jesus render what is due
With joy in hearts are made forever new.
