I took a staff down from your hand
Gripped if firm gripped it hard in my demand
I struck a rock and water gushed into the land
Though this never was Your plan
And Meribah took on its fame
A quarrelsome people now proclaim
We didn't trust your holy name
Still the water came
Oh, you are our God - oh, Spirit lead us on
You spoke to me when serpents came
Forge a snake, build a stake, set it straight
Up in the air for all to see
Simply look and you'll be free
Oh, you are our God - oh, Spirit lead us on
You taught me how to walk and stand
Gave me life, manna in the sand
Still I will only see the edge of a land
That you promised Abraham
Oh, you are our God - oh, Spirit lead us on
