Many years ago while I lived on the Isle of Skye there was a minister who spoke on how we should w.a.t.c.h, for Jesus had said ‘Watch and pray.’
The watchman upon the wall.
Stand or fall?
Fiery darts aimed at all.
Keep watch dear friend,
Keep watch
The tongue a viper,
the wayward steps, stumbling,
lost,
thoughts frenzy,
tears fall,
lost, alone,
a war within and a war without.
Keep watch dear friend,
Keep watch
Watch
Words,
Actions,
Thoughts,
Companions,
Heart.
Watch
Keep watch dear friend,
Keep watch
The watchman upon the wall.
Stand or fall?
Fiery darts aimed at all.
O I stumble, o how I fall!
I can’t do it alone my Lord
Keep watch dear God,
Keep watch of this heart of mine.
