lutheranhymnsWhat is your association with this song?
So many years ago, during Lent, my church sung the second verse (Jesus gives the living water) every week as kind of a theme for the season.
Towards the end of the season, my mom preached a sermon, and I (as a young kid) made an appearance. I'd been sick, went to the bathroom in the middle of the night for a drink of cold water, and promptly vomited it back up. So my mom turned that into a metaphor about "are we doomed to not accept the healing Jesus gives us." (No.)
What was the deal?
As a little kid I was like "well maybe it was just too cold and a shock to my system, I should have tried something lukewarm." In retrospect, I'm guessing that was an early forerunner of my nauseating migraines. :(
