"God Whispered Your Name" is a song recorded by New Zealand-Australian country music singer Keith Urban. It was released on 2 March 2020 as the second single from Urban's eleventh studio album The Speed of Now Part 1.
American Christian musician Chris August co-wrote the song with Shy Carter, Micah Carter, and James T. Slater. Urban co-produced with Dan McCarroll. [1] Of the song, Urban told Nash Country Daily, "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 how to get out of that". [2]
Jennifer Massaux directed the music video, which features Urban performing in a basement, from which he escapes to find a sunlit landscape. The basement scenes were filmed underneath a warehouse in Nashville, Tennessee, while the outside scenes were filmed in Lancaster, California. [3]
