~ Down By The Old Mill ~


Down by the old mill
Right next to the bridge
Is where I met my Jesus
And I know, He lives!

We walked, and we talked
For hours on end
He told me such sweet things
About the love, He does send

We may not always notice
His blessings, from day to day
For when we go through trials
It seems, at times, He is far away

He wants you to know
The truth of it all
He's always beside us
When we fail, or fall

He loves us with passion
And gives to us, His grace
Do not miss His calling
He is here, in this place!

That old mill is special
For it gave my heart peace
When I needed my Jesus
It was my "Soul" release
