just for giggles, written at a church camp so I could perform it with some high school and jr high kids. Usually cannot get through it without laughing.

Lyrics
DIVE
Copyright Deb Rempel 4-03
CAPITALIZED words are said together.
Verse one
Come on DOWN with us to the NENNOSCAH STREAM.
Get away for a while – YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
Bring your thirst, SO DEEP, for the creek is wide
And it beckons us to COME INSIDE.
Refrain
Dive with us in the water. (DIVE, DIVE, DIVE).
Swim in our circle of love. (DIVE, DIVE, DIVE).
Dive with us in the water. (DIVE, DIVE, DIVE).
Swim with our family of God. (DIVE, DIVE, DIVE).
Verse two
Come on DOWN to the shore to REJOICE AS WE VIEW
People washed and raised from the water, BRAND-NEW –
Baptism, new life beginnings – all true.
Listen to us now as we’re SINGING TO YOU:
To refrain.
Bridge
You’ve been LOST IN THE DESERT while your
SOUL BLOWS AWAY, tied your
DREAMS TO THE SHADOWS, died a
LITTLE EACH DAY
Dive in the water.
Hear it calling you.
Dive in the water.
Come and be renewed.
Dive in the water.
Fresh you through and through.
Dive in the water.
Here’s what you should do:
To refrain two times.
End song with one extra “Dive.”
