Author: G. A. Young Hymnal: Worship and Song #3031 (2011) Meter: Irregular with refrain Hymnal Title: Worship and Song First Line: In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet Refrain First Line: Some through the waters, some through the flood Lyrics: 1 In 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.
Refrain:
Some through the waters, some through the flood,
some through the fire, but all through the blood;
some through great sorrow, but God gives a song,
in the night season and all the day long.
2 Sometimes 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. [Refrain]
3 Though 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. [Refrain]
