Heaven Outpoured 
"On the last and greatest day of the
feast, Jesus stood up and exclaimed,
"Let
anyone who thirsts come to me and drink.
Whoever believes in me, as scripture
says:
'Rivers of living water will flow from
within
him.'" (1)
Flowing
Flow from the heart and the soul with great
love;
Flow to the rhythm of heaven above.
Flowing is knowing the ways of the
Lord;
Flowing to others is love's sweet reward.
Flow from the Spirit who planted the
seed;
Flow to the others you serve in their
need.
Flowing is growing the fruits of the
Lord;
Growing in heaven's libation outpoured.
Flow from the life that God gives in
the
host;
Flow to the hungry who need Him the
most.
Flowing is showing that God loves us
all:
The Shepherd is calling; may we hear
His
call.
Flow from the graces received in your
prayer;
Flow in your weakness; God's strength
you
will bear.
Flowing in knowing the Lord will provide;
That heaven goes with you; God is on
your
side.
Flow from the light which your faith
has
begun;
Flow through the darkness when clouds
block
the sun.
Flowing is going uphill on the way,
Bearing the cross -- let God lead where
He
may.
