Josh Turner recently performed The Hillbilly Shakespeare’s “I Saw The Light” live at Gaither Studio. “This is a Hank Williams Song that I’ve always loved and I’m proud to have it on this record. I hope fans love the new arrangement of it,” Turner said. The South Carolina native’s cover will be included on his forthcoming record, I Serve A Savior, which is set to drop on October 26th! Since Turner is an outspoken Christian, it is no surprise that I Serve A Savior is a gospel album. In fact, the 40-year-old says making a gospel record has been a lifelong dream.

“Working on this project has definitely been a God-ordained blessing. I never would have thought I’d be doing this record this year, but God opened a door and I walked through it,” Turner added. “I’ve seen many seemingly impossible things take place during the making of this record and I’ve felt God’s anointing over it.”

“I Saw The Light” Lyrics
I wandered so aimless life filled with sin
I wouldn’t let my dear Savior in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
I saw the light, I saw the light
No more darkness, no more night
Now I’m so happy, no sorry in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
Just like a blind man I wandered alone
Worries and fears I claimed for my own
Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
I saw the light, I saw the light
No more darkness, no more night
Now I’m so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
I was a fool to wander and stray
Straight is the gate and narrow’s the way
Now I have traded the wrong for the right
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
I saw the light, I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I’m so happy, no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
Praise the Lord, I saw the light
