'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)

Secrets Artists Should Learn About The Spotify Algorithm

Spotify's competitive edge is the amount of data it holds on listeners and the way it uses that data to increase engagement. ... Using the same underlying data and technology can provide unique insights to record labels and artists about who's listening to what and help them reach more listeners. The Spotify algorithm sets itself apart from other digital music streaming services. The algorithm is an AI system known as BaRT (an abbreviation of Ba ndits for R ecommendations as T reatments). Basically, BaRT’s job is to keep listeners listening. It does this by playing and suggesting songs it knows the user is familiar with, while dropping in some fresh tracks it thinks they might like, but most importantly, haven’t heard before. This makes sure the listener is engaged, but things never get boring. BaRT decides what to suggest to listeners by combining two concepts – Explore and Exploit. This combination is the key to the platform’s recommendation system. Exploit uses the listene...

"Coming Out Of Babylon" by Robert Peterson and The Crusade: Finding Purpose and Joy in Christ

Robert Peterson had barely dusted off his drum kit when the Lord handed him a new setlist. Robert shares: "this current round of songs being created were different - they were all his - well sort of all his." He had decided it was time to offer up his talents to the Lord. Robert writes: "I was mortified at the thought of actually giving my life to Him. I didn't want to give up who I thought I was."   "Coming Out of Babylon" is the first song coming out of this change (one that was on the shelve a while pending creation of a intro). The result is a five-minute testimony that turns a trembling surrender into a victory march. As you listen, you can feel how this slow ache of "doing what I wanted to… without a fear" transitions into the realization that "I needed You - all the way."   What I enjoy about the song is that it helps to see "leaving" as the first step that is needed to following His calling for us. The chorus emph...
