Immanuel (Short Film)

Returning a year after the powerful reimagining of “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel,” we saw an opportunity to expand this expression of worship as a resounding statement of faith for Israel and its people. Filmed across Texas and Utah, this new short film brings a fresh, visual perspective to last year’s single, “Immanuel,” capturing the Kingdom of God manifesting on earth in a new way. Featuring TAUPOU (Chenia Patu), this piece continues as a prophetic sound and visual declaration that Immanuel—God with us—is here, now.
The Water is Alive
Featuring S&V
Judah Collective is back with their dynamic new single, “The Water Is Alive,” featuring power couple S&V. Following the success of “Ride the Storm,” which resonated deeply with listeners through its personal exploration of struggle and faith, “The Water Is Alive” shifts focus to the power of surrender and revival. This track reminds the listener that even when the storms of life surround, a new breath of grace is available.
Ride the Storm
Featuring Jane Evelyn
“Ride the Storm” is an intimate journey through the depths of depression, self-doubt, and mental battles. The sincere lyrics explore the pain and chaos that often accompany these internal storms. Yet, amidst the darkness, there is a powerful message of healing and redemption. “Ride the Storm” beautifully illustrates how enduring the tempest can lead to profound growth and renewal, encouraging listeners to lift up their eyes to the Lord of Hosts and find strength and hope in His unwavering presence.
You Are Worthy
Featuring Joshua L. Black
More than just a song, “You Are Worthy” is a culmination of purpose
and renewed inspiration for the creative branch of Glory of Zion.
Lyrics penned years ago have found a new life, showcasing the collective’s collaborative spirit and diverse talents. This uplifting anthem celebrates God’s unwavering worthiness and the peace He offers during life’s inevitable trials. “You Are Worthy” serves as a timely reminder that even in challenging moments, we can find rest and strength in the Creator of heaven and earth.
