          MAY OUR WATER FOREVER BREAK AND FLOW

 

As like the water, we were created;

In the breaking of the water we came—

And it is said that we did not come here

To be sitting or standing around for nothing:-

 

Indeed, we are here like the waters of rivers;

Like waters of oceans and seas—flowing to be;

And like the waters, we must ever be about flowing—

Flowing to ever be free from oppressive inequities:-

 

Strong flowing waters can burst damming dams,

And frozen ice melts in warm flowing liberating water; 

And although slow deep streaming water evaporates,

Does it not eventually fall back down on oppressive ground?

 

Let us forever run and flow in physical strength;

Let us forever run and flow in mental awareness;

Let us forever run and flow in spiritual uplifting;

Let us forever run and flow in undying faith:-

 

God has baptized us in the water of His divine love,

Graciously dipping our heads in His divine wisdom,

Guiding us towards His shores of divine liberation,

That we may forever flow in His gracious deliverance:-
