    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

The Baptizer

Are you ready for the sun?
Or were you sleeping on your own?
I had hoped to be the one to raise these bones

Have you heard the stories child?
Did you learn to write your own?
Would you tell it to your children as they get grown?

Here by the river
I’ll stand my ground
And down in the water
I will be found
Sure as the Jordan rolls
Sure as the Jordan rolls on

So you’re ready for new day come
For every mountain to come on down
And for the fire that’s burning up your sacred town

Here by the river
I’ll stand my ground
And down in the water
I will be found
Sure as the Jordan rolls
Sure as the Jordan rolls on

Come let the waters lift up your head
All you you lofty ones, be laid low
Let the valleys raise a highway headed home

1:1-8
