The Almond Branch

I want to have a watchful heart
A heart that watches like my Lord
Attentive always to His word
Ready to make it come to pass.

As He stand watching, may my heart
Watch upon Him with expectation
Until it learns from Him the love
That takes to stand ever so faithful.

I want to watch, watch unto You
I want to love like You have loved
Eternal Flame that don’t retrieve
His purpose, calling or His rod.

Make as watchful as You are
Make me so full of Your desire
That as a booth I stand to bring
The very presence of Your heart.

Watch upon me, watch upon me
To make me bloom Your Truth and Life
Come as the winter and retrieve
All signs of life.

Cover me there in winter snow
Until its deep within its cold
There like an almond branch my Lord
Cause me to bloom for Your delight.

You arre the light that watches still
You are the Faithful One who cries
"Come unto Me, come unto Me
in death and sin just as you are

For I Am watching there for you
Always My eyes upon your life
To cause your heart to live and bloom
Draw near to Me and live at last!

I stand there watching to release
The fruit predestined from your hands.
