'Your Eyes' by Sam Bowman: A Musical Prayer for the Weary Soul


Sam Bowman's latest song, 'Your Eyes,' was based on the first 12 verses of Psalm 139. In this song, Sam talks about how God is always there for us, if we choose to follow Him, and knows everything about us, even the deepest things we think and do.

Sam Bowman - Your EyesImagine this comforting thought… it really doesn't matter where you are - whether you're sailing across the ocean or wrestling with your thoughts as you try to get to sleep at night - God's loving gaze is always with you. That is the reassurance this song is bringing. He is there even when it feels as if we are covered under a layer of darkness, because to God that darkness shines as brightly as day. Our God sees everything, and as a result we are never alone in our struggles.

The lyrics 'My head is an open book that You know well' and 'My heart is a windowpane You see right through' remind us that God already knows what we think and do, in other words, embrace this closeness to God instead of fearing it or trying to coverup our flaws.

As we listen, the lyrics sound more like a prayer, an admission of weakness, and a testament to God's unfailing love. May 'Your Eyes' give you the courage to let go of your burdens, and embrace the comfort that in God's eyes, you are always held, known, and loved.

(Related scripture: Psalm 139:1-2; Psalm 139:7-8; Proverbs 15:3)
