The Watchman
by Harvest

We're living in a day when sin is accepted
And the people hunger only for pleasure
Oh, heal our land, heal our land
Take away the stones and build a tower
Let the watchmen warn us in this hour
That we might stand, we might stand

Set a watchman on the tower
Everybody, stay awake
(Stay awake, stay awake)
The enemy is closer than you think
With a watchman on the tower
We will hear the trumpet sound
And be ready to trample the enemy down

Jerusalem and Judah have fallen
They displayed their wicked sin like Sodom
Forgive them, Lord, forgive them, Lord
Deliver us from the mighty oppressor
And from every man against Your presence
Oh send Your Word, Your holy Word

Set a watchman on the tower
Everybody stay awake
(Stay, awake, stay awake)
The enemy is closer than you think
With a watchman on the tower
We will hear the trumpet sound
And be ready to trample the enemy down
(Ready to trample the enemy down)

Ready
Ready

Oh, set a watchman on the tower
Everybody, stay awake
(Stay awake, stay awake)
The enemy is closer than you think
With a watchman on the tower
We will hear the trumpet sound
And be ready to trample the enemy down

Everyone looking for peace and safety
In a land where God has been forsaken
Oh, Spirit come, Spirit come
Take away the stones that cover the eyes
Of every man deceived by compromise
Sound the alarm, sound the alarm

Set a watchman on the tower
Everybody, stay awake
(Stay awake, stay awake)
The enemy is closer than you think
With a watchman on the tower
We will hear the trumpet sound
And be ready to trample the enemy down
(Ready to trample the enemy down)

Set a watchman on the tower
Everybody, stay awake
(Stay awake, stay awake)
The enemy is closer than you think
With a watchman on the tower
We will hear the trumpet sound
And be ready to trample the enemy down
(Ready to trample the enemy down)
Ready to trample the enemy down
(Ready to trample the enemy down)
Ready to trample the enemy down
