Green Pastures (with Ricky Skaggs) - Emmylou Harris, Ricky Skaggs

Troubles and trials often betray us

Causing 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

He who once gave his life for the sheep

Out on the mountain still he is searching

Bringing them in forever to keep

Going up home to live in green pastures

Where we shall live and die nevermore

Even the Lord will be in that number

When we shall reach that heavenly shore

We shall not heed the voice of a stranger

For he will lead us onto despair

Following on with Jesus our Savior

We shall all reach that country so fair

Going up home to live in green pastures

Where we shall live and die nevermore

Even the Lord will be in that number

When we shall reach that heavenly shore
