Goodbye green still pastures
You’ve served me quite well
I wish I could stay
Tho I love where I dwell
He used you to meet me
We walked side by side
And in your deep quiet
Held me as I cried
You spoke to my soul
While I rested in silence
And soaked in your beauty
Your peace like an island
And He was beside us
Each day as we walked
Your rolling green hills
All ’round us as we talked
Sometimes I sure wish that
I lived here full time
But I’d rather get rich
In the home that is mine
So goodbye green still pastures
It’s been a beautiful season
I trust we’ll meet again
The next time there’s a reason
