Analysis of Watch



You have stood watch.
Warnings you have seen.
The day has come.
Stand back and see.

The walls are crumbling down.
The enemy has been revealed.
Their pride has brought down walls.
Watch them scramble like clowns.

There will be no more deception.
Your chains have been broken.
Standing strong with my word.
You have prevailed.

My light reveals darkness.
This is my time and fight.
Judgement for the enemy is here.

Watchman arise.
Walk by faith.
You have overcome,
See the glory of God.
