1.
O God, my joy, You reign above In radiant splendor and beauty. Your Word has drawn my heart to love The awesome sight of Your glory. Your blazing light and gospel grace Shine brightly from my Savior’s face. No other wonder would I see Than Christ enthroned in His glory! Sustained by joy in trial and pain, I trust Your wisdom and mercy. Through suff'ring that Your love ordains, More like Your Son You will make me. For Christ embraced the cross of shame, Beholding glorious joys to come. O give me faith like His to see That suff’ring lifts me to glory! Compelled by joy, I fight the sin That turns my gaze from Your glory. Your Holy Spirit dwells within; His presence arms me for vict’ry. Let death and hell against me rise; Through death I'll gain eternal joys. All pow'rs of hell will bend the knee Before my great King of glory!

Chosen by the Father’s mercy, Set apart to serve His Son, Sanctified by His own Spirit— Praise the Holy Three in One! Saved by resurrection power, Shielded in His faithful love; Now, no enemy can tarnish My inheritance above! CHORUS I’m Born again! I’m God’s own chosen child of mercy! Born again! What love and grace! Father, keep me walking worthy ‘Til I look upon Your face. Led by wisdom into suff’ring, Grieved by many trials below, Yet rejoicing in His purpose, That my faith as gold may glow. Granted faith for overcoming, Filled with love for Christ unseen; Even angels cannot fathom What salvation God will bring! Fixed upon this hope completely, As obedient children fear; For the Holy One who called you Purchased you with blood so dear. Born anew from seed eternal, By His lovingkindness spurred, Lay aside all tasteless yearnings— Crave the true and living Word! Built on Christ, the sure foundation, We are free from guilt and shame; He is fitting us together As a house to praise His name! We are chosen as God’s people, Called from darkness into light; O what mercy now entreats us To proclaim His glories bright!

Born a broken vessel, A life in disarray, Condemned before the Father, Sin’s penalty to pay. But God, the Judge in Heaven, Declares my sin forgiv’n: “My Son has paid the sacrifice And died that you may live!” CHORUS A broken vessel Made new by His hand! A broken vessel Chosen for His plan! O may this vessel Bring praise to the One Who gave up His Son For a broken vessel! Now this broken vessel Is living in His grace. My sin can never chase me From Christ my hiding place! My voice will sing of Heaven, Of Christ the crucified, And tell this sinful world He loves Of Him who lived to die!

about

When God works, people sing. Watchsong is the result of God’s working in my life, and my response (with the help of some talented friends) in words, poetry, and music. Watchsong captures the aim of this album sharing new songs to help us fight sin and wait (or watch) for the Lord with all hope and joy, like sunrise in the soul!
