Can you hear the raindrops drumming on the rooftops?

There's water, water of life
Jesus gives us the water of life
(Hymn #2, Come and Praise)

Now, I am the first to confess that I am not exactly well up on Christian doctine, but I am fairly certain that the Bible makes no reference to Jesus controlling either (a) precipitation, (b) the water table, or (c) any kind of municipal waterworks. He walked on the stuff, but he didn't provide it wholesale. What gives, Come and Praise?

What s_adelheid said, plus "On the last and greatest day of the Feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him."

I preached on that once, only my mother (who was present) made a rude comment about going to the loo, so I don't think I'll do that again!
