'Living Water (Fill Us Up)' by Lucas Hampton - A Song to Quench Your Spiritual Thirst


Have you ever been outside on a sunny day for so long that your throat and mouth is dry and you really wish you had something to quench your thirst? Hang onto that feeling and think about what it would feel like if your soul is thirsting for something. Lucas Hampton's 'Living Water (Fill Us Up)' is about our spiritual longing / thirsting to have a deeper connection with God. 

Lucas Hampton - Living Water (Fill Us Up)From the first strum of the acoustic guitar to the ambient sounds that build up to an uplifting bridge, this song creates a perfect setting to understand the longing that is expressed in Psalm 63. It speaks directly to that part of us that longs for God in the dry and weary moments of life that we may be facing. 

'Living Water' is a nicely crafted reminder that no matter how empty or thirsty you may be, God is always ready to share His living water. It's an invitation to open your heart to His spirit, let it flow through you, revitalize you, and empower you to carry out His will. 

If you're longing for a fresh touch from God or just need a new song to uplift your spirit, give 'Living Water (Fill Us Up)' a listen. His presence is the refreshing water that fills you, quenches your thirst, and brings life to your dry places.

(Related scripture: Psalm 63:1; John 7:37-38; Isaiah 44:3)

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
