Surely Goodness And Mercy
A pilgrim was I, and a-wander'ng
in the cold night of sin I did roam,
when Jesus the kind Shepherd found me,
and now I am on my way home.
Chorus:
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days, all the days of my life;
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days, all the days of my life.
He restoreth my soul when I'm weary,
He giveth me strength day by day;
He leads me beside the still waters,
He guards me each step of the way.
When I walk through the dark lonesome valley,
my Saviour will walk with me there;
And safely His great hand will lead me
to the mansions He's gone to prepare.
[To Chorus then Outro]
Outro:
And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever
and I shall feast at the table spread for me;
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days, all the days of my life.
"Surely Goodness And Mercy" - John W. Peterson and Alfred B. Smith
