- 1In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet,God leads His dear children along;Where the water’s cool flow bathes the weary one’s feet,God leads His dear children along.Some thru the waters, some thru the flood,Some thru the fire, but all through the blood;Some thru great sorrow, but God gives a song,In the night season and all the day long.
- 2Sometimes on the mount where the sun shines so bright,God leads His dear children along;Sometimes in the valley in darkest of night,God leads His dear children along.Some thru the waters, some thru the flood,Some thru the fire, but all through the blood;Some thru great sorrow, but God gives a song,In the night season and all the day long.
- 3Though sorrows befall us and evils oppose,God leads His dear children along;Through grace we can conquer, defeat all our foes,God leads His dear children along.Some thru the waters, some thru the flood,Some thru the fire, but all through the blood;Some thru great sorrow, but God gives a song,In the night season and all the day long.
