Soap and Water is a high-octane sojourn for the soul, an attestation for the catharsis of faith, and a modern rock earworm which sweeps you up in its fervently pious passion. With an anthemically kinetic chorus, Mercy Journey flipped the script on the expectations of worship music with a production style that blasts beyond the rock trajectory and lands squarely in the electronically augmented future of the genre. The debut single is enough to make Imagine Dragons sound positively antiquated.
Led by lyricist and executive producer Jon Pendleton, Mercy Journey delivered a defiant reminder that the grace of God doesn’t need to whisper when it can cascade through distorted guitar lines and exalted vocal deliveries. With electrifying riffs, transcendent crescendos, and vocals that resound with rapture, Soap and Water fully immerses you in spiritual affirmation.
Mercy Journey exists to remind the broken that grace is already waiting, and Soap and Water floods that message through layers of affecting instrumentation and lyrics that carry the weight of redemptive testimony. While the track has already pulled over 8,000 listeners into its current on Spotify, that figure barely scratches the surface of its reach.
Soap and Water is now available to stream on all major platforms, including Spotify.
