Water Of Ages
(Alfred Jaklitsch / Lyrics & Arr.: Ko-Do 2016/2018)


Rehearsal 12/2018


Original 2016


you're the part of creation that our world needs the most
a fountain of life - shore to shore, coast to coast
you bring the green to the deserts and the fire you tame
and when you drown all the evil you are not to blame 

chorus
water of ages
you're the rain from the skies
you're the river, that rages
you're the tears in our eyes
water of ages
you're the liquid divine
and a heavenly wonder
when you're turned into wine

at the rivers we lay down our swords and our shields
and we ask you to nurture our soil and our fields
you're wide, deep and blue as the heaven's above
that's why we need (use) you to explain what is love

chorus

water of ages
you're so pure and so clear
water of ages
like the truth that you bear
water of ages
you're the liquid divine
and a heavenly wonder
when you turn into wine

chorus
