GREEN PASTURES

Traditional

Listen to the tune

1. 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.

2. 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.

CHORUS:

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.

3. We would not heed the voice of a stranger
For he would lead us into despair.
Following on with Jesus, our Savior
We shall all reach that country so fair.

CHORUS:
