Green Pastures Lyrics

Green Pastures lyrics

Troubles and trials

Often beset us

Causing the weary

Body to stray

But we shall walk

Beside the still waters

With the good shepard

Leading the way



(Chorus)

Going up home to

Live in green pastures

Where we shall live and

Die never more

Even the Lord will

Be in that number

When we have reached that

Heavenly shore



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)



We will not heed the

Voice of a stranger

For he would lead us

All to despair

Following on with

Jesus our savior

We shall all reach that

Country so fair



(chorus twice)
