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.
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.
3.Though sorrows befall us
and Satan oppose,
God leads His dear children along;
Through grace we can conquer, defeat all our foes,
God leads His dear children along.
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.
