When I drink the world sings
songs of wailing and weeping
songs of hope
the world cries out for you--
be known among us, O God
When I drink the world sings
Desperate and confused, exhausted abused
longing with our voice
to make a place among the heavens.
Lord, hear our prayer
When I drink the world sings
and I scarcely know the words
but I live and breathe its tune
the crescendos cascade over me like waves.
Lord, inhabit the praise of your people.
Of what I drink the world sings
hope loss pain forgiveness fear
the blood of all that humanity could be
poured out for all humanity that would be
Sustainer Healer Redeemer Restorer of all.
