GOD LEADS US ALONG by George A. Young
Refrain after each verse.
C# D#m C#
In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet,
G# A#m C#
God leads His dear children a--long;
C# D#m C#
Where the water's cool flow bathes the weary one's feet,
G#7 Fm C#
God leads His dear children a--long.
(Refrain)
C# D#m F# C#
Some through the waters, some through the flood,
A#m6 D#7 G#7
Some through the fire, but all through the blood;
C# F# C#
Some through great sorrow, but God gives a song,
G#7 C#
In the night season and all the day long.
Verse 2
C# D#m C#
Sometimes on the mount where the sun shines so bright,
G# A#m C#
God leads His dear children a--long;
C# D#m C#
Sometimes in the valley, in darkest of night,
G#7 Fm C#
God leads His dear children a--long.
Verse 3
C# D#m C#
Though sorrows befall us and e-vils oppose,
G# A#m C#
God leads His dear children along;
C# D#m C#
Through grace we can conquer, defeat all our foes,
G#7 Fm C#
God leads His dear children along.
Verse 4
C# D#m C#
A-way from the mire, and a--way from the clay,
G# A#m C#
God leads His dear children along;
C# D#m C#
A-way up in glo-ry, e-ter-nity's day,
G#7 Fm C#
God leads His dear children along.
