SURELY GOODNESS AND MERCY -with lyrics video
Author: John W. Peterson & Alfred B. Smith (1958)
Song by: The Dick Bolks Songers



A pilgrim was I, and a wandering,
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.



Verse 2:
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.


Verse 3:
When I walk through the dark lonesome valley,
My savior will walk with me there;
And safely His great hand will lead me
To the mansions He's gone to prepare.


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.

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.


SCRIPTURE:

Psalms 23:6 KJV Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.


Psalms 23:1-6 LJV
1  The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

 2  He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

 3  He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

 4  Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

 5  Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 


 6  Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.


Luke 15:4-7 KJV
4   What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?

 5   And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.

 6  And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.

 7  I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.


John 10:11-15 KJV
11  I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

 12  But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

 13  The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

 14  I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

 15  As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
