Josh Turner won his first Gospel Music Association Dove Award at the 50th annual GMA Dove Awards on Oct. 15 in Nashville.

Josh took home the trophy for Bluegrass/Country/Roots Recorded Song of the Year for “I Saw The Light.”

“I Saw the Light” is featured on Josh’s first album of gospel music, I Serve a Savior, which was released in 2018. The 12-song offering boasts a number of gospel classics, including Amazing Grace,” “Great Is Your Faithfulness” and “Doxology,” as well as the cover of Hank Williams’ “I Saw the Light.”

Josh, who has scored a handful of No. 1 hits on the country charts, netted two additional Dove Award nominations for Southern Gospel Recorded Song of the Year for “How Great Thou Art” and Bluegrass/Country/Roots Album of the Year for I Serve A Savior.
