Written with congregational singing in mind, Psalm 23 has been moved from an individual perspective to a group one so we can sing the truth of these beautiful and ancient words together.
Based on words someone said when explaining Isaiah 61. There is nothing that God considers garbage in our life or throws away. He fulfills His plans with us, makes beautiful things out of brokenness. A song to express hope in difficult situations and to praise God no matter what.
Often times we tend to deal with life's challenges on our own and forget that God is there for us. Long, protracted prayers are not without merit, but sometimes all it takes is a simple prayer to give you comfort and strength to deal with your trials and tribulations.
This is a song about longing for and experiencing the Holy Spirit but knowing the truth that He lives inside us.
John 7 v 37-39 "On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’"
Jesus promised that streams of Living Water would flow from within us - Living Water flow!!
Wonderfully arranged and produced by Mike Sandeman and with backing vocals from my daughter, Bekah Vickers-Patel.
This song works really well with just guitar and vocal, particularly with the refrain "Living Water Flow".
Based on verses from the Holy Bible:
“Whoever goes to the Lord for safety, whoever remains under the protection of the Almighty can say to Him, You are my defender and protector, You are my God; in You I trust”.
(Psalm 91:1-2 GNT)
“…there is nothing in all creation that will ever be able to separate us from the love of God which is ours through Christ Jesus our Lord”. (Romans 8:39 GNT)
