There might be a fathomless reservoir?
Something that's ancient and hidden and pure?
For our country, that's no metaphor.
-Lyrics from "Ogallala Aquifer" by McCarthy Trenching
McCarthy Trenching performed at an outdoor prayer service that was hosted by the church I attend. A stanza from the song "Ogallala Aquifer" was so beautiful that I had to share it. (The link above will take you to recording of the complete song.)
Sometimes during prayer it does feel as if I have tapped into something fathomless and pure. I'm always on the lookout for ways to communicate what a spiritual experience feels like. If I use the Ogallala Aquifer as an analogy, would that help others to understand what I'm experiencing when I pray?
