Furrows on My Back Blues – A Psalm 129 Blues Song Cry of Endurance

🔊“Furrows on My Back” is a soul-deep blues anthem forged in the fire of Psalm 129 — a cry from the afflicted, a testimony of survival, and a declaration that no matter how many times the enemy strikes, they have not prevailed.

From the pain of deep wounds to the redemption of God's righteous justice, this song walks the path of Israel’s suffering and rising. It carries the grit of hardship, the scars of oppression, and the triumph of one whose soul was plowed like earth — but not defeated.

This blues-infused spiritual brings the raw poetry of Scripture to life, blending original biblical text with fresh lyrics rooted in faith, fire, and fierce endurance. It’s a song for every soul who’s been through the storm and still sings.

Let Israel say:
"Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against me."

** Original Scripture Psalm 129 in (WEB)

A Song of Ascents.

1 Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up,
let Israel now say:
2 many times they have afflicted me from my youth up,
yet they have not prevailed against me.
3 The plowers plowed on my back.
They made their furrows long.
4 Yahweh is righteous.
He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.
5 Let them be disappointed and turned backward,
all those who hate Zion.
6 Let them be as the grass on the housetops,
which withers before it grows up,
7 with which the reaper doesn’t fill his hand,
nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.
8 Neither do those who go by say,
“The blessing of Yahweh be on you.
We bless you in Yahweh’s name.”

🎶 Lyrics: Psalm 129 - Furrows on My Back Blues

Verse 1
Many times they struck me down, from the days of my youth,
Tried to write my ending — but they couldn't change the truth.
They plowed my back like hardened ground,
Cut me deep and held me down.
But the cords of the wicked — the Lord cut loose.

Verse 2
They came like storms on desert roads,
Hatred heavy, with bitter loads.
But Zion still stands through the fire and rain,
And I rose again through the ache and pain.
The reaper passed by — had nothin’ in his hand.

Bridge
“Many times they have afflicted me from my youth,”
Let Israel say it — let the world face the truth.
“Yet they have not prevailed against me,”
No chain could hold what God set free.

Verse 3
Let ‘em turn back, those who curse His name,
Their plans like dry grass — burnin’ up in shame.
They’ll never hear the blessing call,
No peace for them, no grace at all.
While Zion’s children walk tall in the flame.

Outro
So if you see my scars, know this is fact:
The righteous One broke every chain,
And healed the furrows on my back.
