Following the release of his two singles “Up” and “Country On,” Luke Bryan is continuing his country music takeover with “Prayin’ In A Deer Stand.” Unlike his two previous releases, the five-time Entertainer of the Year is focusing on his spiritual roots and his love for nature. “I think I read somewhere in the Good Book / Says he’s everywhere, up in this tree with the wind and the leaves,” he sings, per Genius. As the song continues, Bryan expresses the importance of taking a break from the technological world and heading out in nature to reconnect with your spirit. “I do my prayin’ in the deer stand, on my back-forty church / Thinkin’ bout life on a cold sunrise, yeah, that’s my Heaven on Earth / Me and God in a cornfield,” he croons throughout the chorus.
On the song’s second verse, the beloved artist reassures music listeners that prayer and a spiritual journey can take place anywhere, whether it be “on a pier” or while listening to a church choir sing. In a press release obtained by Nicki Swift, Bryan gave further insight into the track and its deeper meaning. “This is such a personal song to me. The world can be a busy place, and I like a lot of people, have a ton of different things going on but getting to be outside, it grounds and reenergizes me,” he explained. “There is just something about it that never gets old.”
