Stock Your Pond
There is an old murky pond;
Filled with slime from the past.
It reminds me of life's sin;
Where many wrongs were cast.
Filled with slime from the past.
It reminds me of life's sin;
Where many wrongs were cast.
When I look back at my life;
I'm reminded again;
Not to fish at that old pond;
That reminds me of sin.
I'm reminded again;
Not to fish at that old pond;
That reminds me of sin.
So when I go a fishin'.
I'll fish with guarantee.
Knowing that my pond is clean;
Because Jesus saved me.
I'll fish with guarantee.
Knowing that my pond is clean;
Because Jesus saved me.
When I stock my pond with fish;
Like faith and joy and peace.
I pray when others fish around;
They would see Jesus in me.
Like faith and joy and peace.
I pray when others fish around;
They would see Jesus in me.
If you were a pond full of fishes;
What kind of fishes would swim?
Would they be fishes for Jesus?
Or would they be fishes of sin?
What kind of fishes would swim?
Would they be fishes for Jesus?
Or would they be fishes of sin?
Stock your pond, Stock your pond;
With fish that bring joy and bless.
Stock your pond, Stock your pond;
With the truth of righteousness.
With fish that bring joy and bless.
Stock your pond, Stock your pond;
With the truth of righteousness.
So when someone goe's a fishin' ;
With their fishin' pole.
They would only find good fish;
At the fishin', hole.
With their fishin' pole.
They would only find good fish;
At the fishin', hole.

(Children's Song)
The word fishes is not the proper word but it makes the song fun so I used it.
Today as a took a walk I saw a man casting his line into the water of a pond. I said hello and I asked him if he caught anything. He said, " I don't know why anyone would want to fish in this old murky pond anyway". Then He said, "I did catch a nice sized fish here before." I told him maybe I would try fishing there sometime. Then as I walked away I thought, I wonder if anyone could ever eat a fish that came from that pond. I thought about this a couple days before as well. I thought that pond needed to be cleaned and stocked with fish. Well then God used this scene to speak to me and moved me to write this children's song.
