Author: G. A. Young Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #391 (2011) Meter: 11.8.11.8 with refrain First Line: In shady green pastures, so rich and so sweet Refrain First Line: Some through the waters, some through 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 through the waters, some through the flood, Some through the fire, but all through the blood; Some through 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 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. [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.
