Text:The Lord is my Shepherd

212. The Lord is my Shepherd

The Lord is my Shepherd; no want I’ll suffer; He maketh me to lie down in green pastures, ​and leadeth me by the still waters. He my soul in peace restoreth. ​He leadeth me on righteous pathways To His name’s praise and honor. ​And though I walk in the vale of darkness here, I need fear no evil, for Thou art with me, ​for Thou art with me. ​Thy rod and Thy staff comfort me. Thou preparest a table for me ​in the face of my foes. Anointest my head with oil; ​my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy follow me ​all the days of my life and thus shall I dwell ​in God’s holy house now and forevermore. In God’s holy house evermore.
