Lyrics:
“We All Come Thirsty”
Tune: ST. COLUMBA 8.7.8.7 (“The King of Love My Shepherd Is”)
Text: Anna Strickland, 2022
Music: Irish melody
We all come thirsty to the well
To seek the living water
With wounds and pasts we’d rather hide
But letting our hearts soften
Through differences our hands can reach
To care and hold each other
There are no strangers for they are
Our siblings, sisters, brothers
We care for God’s community
Our mutual aid shared freely
To all we give as we receive
With grace and loving deeply ©
