Rhett Walker – “Look at God” (New Song Alert) Released 5/23/25

Some songs feel like they were written for a moment you’ve already lived. “Look at God” by Rhett Walker is one of those for me. I’ve known the grip of anxiety — the kind that steals your breath and floods your mind with every “what if” you can’t control. I’ve sat in the heaviness of overthinking until it felt like I was sinking. And then, in the middle of the noise, I remembered to lift my eyes. Not to the chaos. Not to the fear. But to Him.

That’s the heartbeat of this song — a lifeline for anyone who’s ever felt like they were drowning in their own thoughts. Walker doesn’t just sing about mountaintops; he sings about the valleys too, because he’s walked them. His own story is one of redemption — a teenage pregnancy, a marriage that defied the odds, and a life turned around when he surrendered to Christ. That’s why his songs carry weight. They’re not theory; they’re testimony. 

“Look at God” is Psalm 121:1‑2 set to melody: “I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.” It’s a reminder that our help isn’t found in fixing ourselves, in controlling the outcome, or in numbing the pain. It’s found in the One who made the mountains we’re looking toward.

When I hear this song, I’m reminded of the times God’s faithfulness showed up in ways I couldn’t have planned — the unexpected provision, the peace that didn’t make sense, the strength to take one more step. And I know I’m not the only one. This is a song for the weary, the restless, the ones who’ve been holding their breath for too long.

So if your mind won’t quiet down, if your heart feels heavy, if you’re standing in the middle of a storm — look at God. Let this song be your prayer until the words become your reality. Share it with someone who needs it. Play it until the truth sinks in. And let your life be the proof that He’s still the reason we’re standing, still the reason we can breathe again, and still the One who deserves all the glory.
