Interesting facts and trivia about God Whispered Your Name. By Songfacts®.

"God Whispered Your Name" is a beat-focused ode to the kind of true love that leads to a man's redemption. James Slater, Shy Carter, Micah Carter and Chris August penned the bouncy ballad.

I was so cold and lost And nothing seemed to ring true Urban knew straight away he wanted to record the song as it hit close to home. He explained: "'God Whispered Your Name' absolutely spoke to me and tells my journey in such a profound way going through a season in life of being very lost and lonely and confused and not knowing a how to get out of that, and then the chorus hits - 'God Whispered Your Name' and everything starts to open up and become clear. And that second verse when it said, 'I can feel the sunshine for the first time in a while', again, was just, it just went right to the core of me."

Chris August is a Contemporary Christian musician whose debut record, No Far Away, won a Dove award for Best Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year. This ballad's message about a redemptive love reflects the songwriter's faith, while the organ and background "hallelujahs" from Urban's backing vocalists add to its spiritual vibe.
