Author: G. A. Young Hymnal: Sing Joyfully #479 (1989) Topics: Jesus Christ Guide First Line: In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet Refrain First Line: Some thru the waters, some thru 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 thru the waters, some thru the flood,
Some thru the fire, but all thru the blood:
Some thru 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 Tho' sorrows befall us and Satan oppose,
God leads His dear children along;
Thru grace we can conquer, defeat all our foes,
God leads His dear children along. (Refrain)
4 Away from the mire and away from the clay,
God leads His dear children along;
Away up in glory, eternity’s day,
God leads His dear children along. (Refrain)
