Philip Bailey
I Will No Wise Cast You Out
[Verse 1]
Well, I know of those
Who at His command
Dare to cast their faith
On the shepherd's staff

And he leads them on
Where they want no more
Where the pasture's green
And their faith's restored

[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, I
Will no wise cast you out
My friend
Why is it you doubt?
You doubt my love for you
Come on and take My hand
I will be with you
I will see you through

A friend
Surely
Surely
Surely

[Verse 2]
Those gods that you served
In your life before
Were deceiving you
And your hope restored

But there's only one
Only one true God
He said eternal life
It's in His only Son
[Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, I
Will no wise cast you out
My friend
Why is it you doubt?
You doubt my love for you
Come on and take My hand
I will be with you
I will see you through

[Repeat Chorus]

[Instrumental break]

A friend
A friend

A friend

A friend
Surely
A friend

The Lord is my shepherd
And I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me beside
Still and restful waters
He refresheths and restoreths my soul
He won't cast you out
He won't cast you out
Call Him
He won't leave you alone, yeah
A friend
Surely
A friend

[Fade out]
