Fraley-RebornByLivingWater-Perusal

Overview

Reborn by Living Water was written for a small church choir which was light on tenor and bass voices. While easy for the choir to learn and sing, there is a lot of musical interest, including the counterpoint in the piano and a cleverly hidden modulation towards the end of the music. Appropriate for baptism or Eastertide.

The Text

Reborn by Living Water

The green blade rises from the buried grain,
and baptized in Christ we, too, live again:
we share by graceful pardon in His risen life!

Reborn by living water, redeemed by Christ.

The empty tomb proclaims the good news:
that love conquers sin, a battle we would lose,
except by graceful pardon in His risen life!

Reborn by living water, redeemed by Christ.

And so, my friend, you, too, can be
a grain transformed by God’s mighty deed
and share His love and pardon in His risen life!

Reborn by living water, redeemed by Christ.

—Christopher Lee Fraley (2006)
