Stanley Brothers - Green Pastures Lyrics

Troubles and trials often betray those

Causing the weary body to stray

But we shall walk beside the still water

With the good shepherd leading the way



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



We will not heed the voice of the stranger

For he would lead us on to despair

Following home with Jesus our savior

We shall all reach that country so fair
