Town Of Cana

(album: The Holy Land - 1969)

We are in the Town of Cana
It is a short distance from Nazareth toward the Sea of Galilee
And on his way to Capernaum Jesus stopped at a wedding feast
Here which he was invited to
And when he came to the feast he was told that the family was so poor
That they didn't have wine for the wedding feast
So Christ at this very spot that we are entering right now
On which a church stands over
Jesus ordered the jugs filled with water
And then when they were served at the feast
When the jugs were poured around to the different people
It was wine of the finest wine that was known in Galilee at that time
We are entering now down into a kind of a crypt-like place underneath the church
Where the miracle actually took place
And there is one of the jugs here
That supposedly was one of those he used to pour the wine from that had been water
And the well that the water was drawn from
We are at the place where the water cintern was
It is all undeground as most people lived back then under ground because it was cool
This is where the water came from
He turned the water into wine
