    Nominated by GMA Canada for Folk Album of the Year in 2020, "What I Heard, What I Saw" lends flesh and bone, ache and longing to the outcasts, prophets and would-be followers found in the book of Mark. More than that, the album is a confessional: a candid retelling of Kristen’s own journey stumbling through hard questions towards faith, finding meaning in the grit and dust of roads unknown. Collaborating with award-winning producer/guitarist Murray Pulver (The Bros. Landreth, Steve Bell, Red Moon Road), Kristen offers a folk meditation on these challenging narratives, which have informed deep conviction and creativity among the religious and non-religious alike for generations.

lyrics

After the Storm

Jesus Christ
Sleeping in the stern of our boat
Did you cut the lines
And leave us here to waves and to wars?
The people are bleeding
Are you still sleeping?
Can you hear the sound of guns from down below?

Would you stand beside
And whisper now the words that you spoke
Long before our time
That summoned here the oceans we know?
But after the storm
When you’re done speaking
Will you leave us here to row ashore alone?

“Are you so afraid?
Oh you …
Oh are you so afraid?
Oh you, you of little faith”

I could never have known
From where I was, my feet on the shore
What the waters show
What echoes here from ocean’s roar
It’s clearer now
But my heart’s still beating
You are the not the one I said I knew before
Standing on the shore
You are not the one I said
Not the one I said I knew

4.35-41
