The Scent of Water
In the spring a new bud sets forth
The living waters of Jehovah’s throne gives birth
To thousands of new opportunities
From lessons of past infirmities
Each root growing deeper in the knowledge of Christ
Tender new blossoms of life
Exchanged from the weeds of strife
Never fading in the shadows of a new day
Shooting up to Abba Father
A tree of new life gives way
Water us gently O Savior
You are our Mighty Gardener
Tend to your orchard of trees
Breathe on your orchard your sacred breeze

Inspired by Job 14:7-9
