Psalm 23:2-3 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
[3] He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
From green pastures to still waters to dark valleys; the Lord is ever leading His sheep in close proximity.
Born again believers are God's sheep.
He leads us, feeds us, protects us, and watches over us at all times - Heb. 13:5; Matt. 28:20. We are to follow.
God Leads Us Along
________________________________
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.
CHORUS:
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.
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.
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.
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.
George A. Young 1903
