In Pastures Green


by H. H. Barry

In pastures green? Not always; 
sometimes He Who knoweth best,
 in kindness leadeth me In weary ways, 
where heavy shadows be.

And by still waters? No, not always so;
Oftimes the heavy tempests round me blow,
And o’er my soul the waves and billows go.

But when the storms beat loudest, and I cry
Aloud for help, the Master standeth by,
And whispers to my soul, “Lo, it is I.”
So where He leads me I can safely go,
And in the blest hereafter I shall know
Why in His wisdom He hath led me so.
