A Refreshing Anthem: "Living Water" by Coming Kingdom


"Living Water" is the final track on Coming Kingdom's debut EP, 'Awakening'. The song was penned and performed by Zac Carpenter, together with Joel Lane, Brendan Lee, and Bethany Tucker. It's a song that has been transformational in times of worship within the Croydon Vineyard church community. It's a song of invitation, submission, and expectation. Invite the Holy Spirit to make a real impact in your day-to-day life, surrender your heart and mind to God, and expect His powerful presence in everything you do and whatever challenges you face.

Coming Kingdom - Living WaterThis song is meant to reach into your heart and give words to your deepest longing for God's refreshing touch. Life is meaningless when we try to leave God out of the equation, and it's lines like "Spirit, come and fall afresh on us" and "Rain down, Spirit of God" that perfectly capture that longing. 

"Living Water" is a prayer, a plea to God, set to music, asking the Holy Spirit to come into our lives and change us with His boundless love and grace. May this song support your prayers to God to move, restore, and fill your life with His living water.

(Related scripture: John 7:38; Isaiah 44:3; Acts 2:17)

"You Are Holy" by Spirit Worship: Honest Worship When Hope Runs Thin

Honest worship starts exactly where your pain is. Years of loss pushed the songwriter behind “You Are Holy” into a wilderness. Loved ones died, jobs and homes disappeared, health and finances faltered, and a church plant that failed. Most worship songs felt dishonest to him during that season, so the Psalms became his lifeline. “You Are Holy” sits down beside you and tells the truth. “It’s hard to be patient with nothing but time.” “It’s hard to be hopeful when everything dies.” Have you ever whispered something like that? That’s okay, it’s what we do next that makes a difference! “Yet though I am suffering, I’ll trust in Your name.” David faced that same kind of challenge in Psalm 13. He opens with “How long, O LORD?” and lands here: “But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.” His circumstances barely moved between the first verse and verse five, but his gaze did. You can do the same today. Be honest with God. Tell Him exactly how heavy e...

"My Love of Christmas (Peace Starts in Me)" by Avery Stafford: One Heart at Peace Can Change the Room

Peace begins in a willing heart. When did you last open your own time capsule? Avery Stafford found a time capsule somewhere in his mind and opens it in his song “My Love of Christmas (Peace Starts in Me)”. His time capsule contained a Folgers can filled with buttons and thread, a crystal globe, a denim patch, and the scent of Avon cologne. Seemingly ordinary treasures, but each one carries a Christmas that he’s never stopped loving. Avery blends gospel warmth with soulful pop to speak to the child in all of us, the child who still believes that Love leads the way. In the bridge, he wishes that child well, “forever dancing under the starlight with stories yet to tell.” The song also reminds us that memories alone cannot fix a restless / broken world, and he knows it: “We long for happily ever afters, but none of us really knows.” So where does peace begin? Not in a headline, a treaty, the outcome of the midterms, or a December calendar. Paul gives us an answer in Colossians 3:15: “And...

"Road to Heaven - Unplugged" by Crossroads Soul Revival: Heaven Is Not So Far Away

Heaven feels closer when you pray honestly. Two musicians created this unplugged rendition of “Road to Heaven”. One acoustic guitar and one live voice. No studio polish or AI assistance, no layers, nothing to hide behind. “Road to Heaven” began months ago as a GenAI-assisted release, and it deserved a human makeover. This stripped-down remake emphasizes what the song always intended to be: an honest and transparent prayer. Have you ever prayed like that? Nothing to hide, just showing God what’s really going on? The lyrics skip all of the fancy words. “Lord, I cannot make it on my own,” and continues with a confession, “I’ve never served You like I know I really could.” The singer keeps walking, open for what God does next, because “Heaven’s not so far away.” Crossroads Soul Revival blends gritty Southern soul and blues vibe with an unapologetic Gospel message, and the grit fits. The road to Heaven isn’t a polished highway. It’s a road that belongs to tired, imperfect people who need ...
