Bluegrass Songs - Green pastures

Green pastures

Trouble and trials often betray
Those all in 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 the number
    When we have reached that heavenly shore

Those who have strayed were sought by the master
He who once gave his lift for the seep
Out on the mountain still he is seaching
Bringing them in forever to keep

  * Refrain

We will not heed the voice of a stranger
For he will lead us all to despair
Following on with Jesuse our savior
We shall all reach that country so far

  * Refrain
