1 I wandered alone down sin's lonesome valley (lonely and sad)
Til I heard a sweet voice saying sinner "Come Home"
I heeded the call--came to Him and repented (now I'm so glad).
I'm happy today for I'm one of his own.

Refrain:
The Lord is my Shepherd (The Lord is my Shepherd)
And I shall not want (And I shall not want)
He maketh me lie (He maketh me lie)
In pastures so green (In pastures so green)
Beside the still water (the cool and clear waters)
He restoreth my soul (My poor hungry soul)
Oh, glory to God (Oh, glory to God)
I am free and made whole (I'm so happy and whole).

2 A pilgrim down here, tho foot sore and weary (weary and sad)
I will never turn back, till the setting of sun,
Some wonderful day, in that beautiful city (city so fair)
All my traveling days, on this earth will be run. [Refrain]
