Green Pastures

Housefires' song is a worship ballad about God's constant presence and faithfulness through life's trials. The lyrics express confidence that God is with the believer in every situation, from fire to ashes, and that His promises of peace and provision remove fear of the future. The bridge is a prayer for restoration, asking God to fill a broken life with His love and make it whole again. The song draws on the imagery of Psalm 23's green pastures and still waters, and the name Emmanuel, meaning 'God with us.' It offers comfort and reassurance for those facing loneliness, fear, or brokenness.

VERSE: 

 When I feel alone, I?m never alone,

You are right beside me

Standing in the fire and with the ashes

You make something beautiful


CHORUS:

No matter where I go 

You've already been

There is no shadow you aren't standing in

I wont fear tomorrow

You know what lies ahead.

Green pastures, still waters, are your promises.


VERSE TWO:

You are God with me, Emmanuel 

Beginning to the end 

When you whisper peace, you still my heart 

The power of your presence, it is revealed


BRIDGE:

Lord take my broken cup and fill me with your love

Only you can make me whole again,

Only you can make me whole again
