Green Pastures

Troubles and trials often betray us
 Causing the weary body to stray
 But we shall walk beside the still waters
 With the Good Shepherd leading the way
 Those who have strayed were sought by the master
 He who once gave his life for the sheep
 Out on the mountain still he is searching
 Bringing them in forever to keep
 Going up home to live in green pastures
 Where we shall live and die nevermore
 Even the Lord will be in that number
 When we shall reach that heavenly shore
 We shall not heed the voice of a stranger
 For he will lead us onto despair
 Following on with Jesus our Savior
 We shall all reach that country so fair
 Going up home to live in green pastures
 Where we shall live and die nevermore
 Even the Lord will be in that number
 When we shall reach that heavenly shore
