Tune: Sagina
('And can it be')
John 2 v.1-12
**********
Marriage in Cana, Galilee
Jesus, Mary His mother, see
Were there invited, disciples too
He would provide for them wine new
Supplies ran out, calamity
But a miracle, sign would be
Supplies ran out, calamity
But a miracle, sign would be
There filled six water-pots of stone
Jesus' word spoken, it was known
To fill with water vessels at hand
They set to it, obedient band
Then Jesus said, Draw out now, bear
It to governor of feast, share
Then Jesus said, Draw out now, bear
It to governor of feast, share
The governor had tasted sure
The wine that was water before
He not knowing from whence it was
But servants who drew knew the cause
He said to Jesus, Every one
Sets forth good wine first, what this done?
He said to Jesus, Every one
Sets forth good wine first, what this done?
For You Jesus have kept good wine
Until later, 'tis best and fine
So this miracle done, glory shown
By Jesus, it was seen and known
And His disciples there believed
On Him, and His blessings received
And His disciples there believed
On Him, and His blessings received

I can't recall this happening at my wedding to KP. We had only a little wine. KP spent most of the money for the reception on botox! (I am cruel. lol).
sounds like a marriage made in heaven .................................... 🙂
Thanks N.
Haha, the best wine is of Jesus, his blood is wine and flesh is bread,eat and drink of His blood and flesh,and we will never thirst or hunger again, I don't know about you,but that's the only nourishment I need
Thanks Blue. You living on (physical) bread too? Though Jesus says man shall not live on it alone. Some wags add: 'Nope, we need water too'. There is that too!
it's my own fault, being eccentric - I married KP (Katie Price) one Halloween. It had to be that day. You'll soon see her, if you see UK news or newspapers. She's there, oh, nearly every day on her ego trip.
Haha, I will Google her,
Bread water regular food,but mostly have a hunger for God's word.
Halloween,huh, I guess you made a bad holiday,a good one,
She's an actress right, what was she in
Oohh, she's in everything!! Even for drink-driving. She don't mind, as long she is in the papers yet again. It's scandalous.
I'm horrible to her. heehee. I don't recognise her now with Botox. Looks like an old trout! lol.
Haha,but you love her anyway
I had to marry on Halloween - the darkest day, all went wrong, etc, etc. We did not have much of a Reception. She spent most of the cost on Botox! lol.
Haha,she wanted to look her best for you Orchi
I never see her 95% of the time now. She's either in the papers, in a film, or some photo-shoot! She never stops her ego trips. lol.
What is one of her films,I will watch it
I don't know really. I just read of them in passing - then forget them! lol.
I suppose you still put water in that wine!!
Thanks Gold. Ahh yes, I did! I'm the one responsible for turning the wine back into water. heehee.
