lyrics

They say Jesus walked across the Sea of Galilee.
And Matthew and Mark and John
Each tell the tale a little differently.
But Luke? He skipped it in its entirety.

Lord, make me water.
Lord, help me to me flow.

Maybe Luke was just jealous of Jesus’s abilities.
Maybe Luke’s suspicious mind engendered disbelief.
Or maybe Luke thought the brotha was
Too much showing off His divinity.

Lord, make me water.
Lord, help me to me flow.

So she says:
“What you mean, you wanna flow like water?
We are all already water.”

The Lord, that day, He made the human brain
About seventy-five percent water.
And the Lord, from the start, He made the human heart
About seventy-five percent water.

So what I’m saying is:
We are all already water.
We are all already divine.
So open up that bottle.
Tonight, let’s just be wine.

Lord, make me water.
Lord, help me to me flow.

“Literary Kravitz,” as some say.
