In the heavenly pastures fair,
‘Neath the tender Shepherd’s care,
Let us rest beside
the living stream today;
Calmly there in peace recline,
Drinking in the truth Divine,
As His loving call
we now with joy obey.
Glorious streams of life eternal,
Beauteous fields of living green
Though revealed within the Word
Of our Shepherd and our Lord,
By the pure in heart alone
can they be seen.
Far from all the noise and strife
That disturb our daily life.
Let us pause awhile
in silence and adore;
Then the sound of His dear voice
Will our waiting souls rejoice,
As He nameth us
His own for evermore.
Glorious streams of life eternal,
Beauteous fields of living green
Though revealed within the Word
Of our Shepherd and our Lord,
By the pure in heart alone
can they be seen.
Oh, how good, and true, and kind,
Seeking His stray sheep to find,
If they wonder into danger
from His side!
Ever closely may we tread
Where His holy feet have led;
So at last with Him in heaven
we may abide.
Glorious streams of life eternal,
Beauteous fields of living green
Though revealed within the Word
Of our Shepherd and our Lord,
By the pure in heart alone
can they be seen.
