You came to the water
To look deep within
The endless dark water
To seek and to swim
You dove in the rapids
To ferry you forth
In thrall to the tidelines
Of limitless worth

You came to the water
An innocent child
The ancient blue water
The call of the wild
In forests and rivers
Where angels have swum
You came to know truly
Where all was begun

You came to the water
To look deep within
The endless dark water
Where all must begin
