Trouble and trials often betray those

On in the weary body to stray

But we shall walk beside the still waters

With the good shepherd leading the way

Those who have strayed were sought by the master
B F#
He who once gave his life for the sheep
B E
Out on the mountain still he is seaching
B F# B
Bringing them in forever to keep
B E
Going up home to live in green pastures

Where we shall live and die never more

Even the Lord will be in that number
B F# B
When we shall reach that heavenly shore

Following on with Jesuse our savior

We shall all reach that country so fair

Where we shall live and die never more

Even the Lord will be in that number

When we shall reach that heavenly shore
