Jesus there on the shoreline
the crowd pressing
trying ever, to get closer to him
Going out, onto the waters
the crowd hushed
to hear the words from him
Under the Galilean sun
the water alive, shimmering,
his words igniting
Each one of our hearts
eager for the message of Jesus
like a mirage in the desert
an oasis of love
Water he was offering
there on the seashore
not the brackish sea
by living waters of hope
Each of us transformed
under that bright sun
Jesus preaching
a message of love
