I Was Thirsty

Giuseppe Möder - La Fontana

I was thirsty
So Spirit guided me to a puddle 
The water I gathered in my cup was muddy
So I learned how to purify what I had been given
And I drank

I was thirsty
So Spirit guided me to a fountain
I pumped but the fountain was dry
So I sat down and cried until the fountain was full
And I drank

I was thirsty
So Spirit guided me to an old well
The water brought up in my bucket was toxic
So I bled into the well to cleanse the water
And I drank

I was thirsty
So Spirit guided me to a crooked tree
There wasn't any water to be seen anywhere
So I dug until I found an underground spring
And I drank

I was thirsty
So Spirit guided me to my own heart
My heart was locked inside an iron cage
So I forged a key that set the sea inside me free
And I drank
