Little Delta Church

George Knight

Amazing Grace how sweet
The sound that saved a wretch like me

Along the river by the road
Near a Mississippi town
Was a place where my family loved to go
Was the church house with a steeple
And was always filled with people
Cause the neighbors came from
Miles and miles around

As a boy and as a man in
The front row I would stand
And raise my voice to God up in the sky
Everybody joined the singing till the
Little church was ringing
With songs like In The Sweet By And By

In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
Though I've long been lost in sin
I can dream me back again
To the little church that's
Nestled in my mind

In the early part of May delta
Nights were hard to take
So we opened up the windows and the doors
The congregation sat and fanned some
With bibles in their hands
Out into the night the words
Of God would pour

Precious memories how they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold

In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
Though I've long been lost in sin
I can dream me back again
To the little church that's
Nestled in my mind
