Ei, Naamã

Hey, Naaman! Do what you were told
And from this leprosy, you’ll be healed, just dive in
Hey, Naaman! Leave that pride behind
Get in the river and dive deep, just dive in
Hey, Naaman! Set aside your arrogance, you’ll lose the blessing
Of being healed from the bad, just dive in

But how can a great general
Dive into this filthy river?
There are better rivers for me to dive in
Nearby there’s Abana and Pharpar
I’d rather leave, I’d rather go back
Than have to wash in the Jordan
But they insisted until they convinced Naaman to wash

Here goes Naaman to dive
One, God in deep silence
Two, the best was yet to come
Three, Naaman dives again
Four, Naaman was already tired
Five, Naaman was about to give up
Six, just one last time left
On the seventh time Naaman dove
Still submerged in the wet river
He came up slowly with his eyes closed
Expecting the same bad result
But when he looked at his whole body
He was healed

Hey, church listen, today God makes me a prophet
There’s a message for you at this party
You have to dive
To receive God’s complete blessing
The family, the healing, the open doors
You have to dive
To feel the anointing from heaven falling
The glory of the Father, His power acting
You have to dive
Then you say: But how can it be
That I have to wash in this muddy river?
I won’t give glory, I won’t shout
I’d rather stay the same
Set aside that pride and arrogance
Dive in the river you were told
And that coldness you have in your life
You will be healed

Come with me to dive
One, feel the Holy Spirit
Two, look at the fire burning
Three, fill your vessel now
Four, be baptized now
Five, speak in mysteries with God
Six, dive one last time
On the seventh time God will catch you
He’ll set you on your feet and you’ll walk
And all the leprosy from sin
From today on you will be healed
Leave here singing, glorifying God that the bad has been healed

This is for those who believe
And who have faith
In what God can do today still
Who serves Him, it’s struggle, it’s promise
It’s guaranteed blessing
