The Lord Is My Shepherd

Lyrics

1. The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know; I feed in green pastures, safe-folded I rest; He leadeth my soul where the still waters flow, Restores me when wandering, redeems when oppressed.
2. Through the valley and shadow of death though' I stray, Since thou art my Guardian, no evil I fear; Thy rod shall defend me, thy staff be my stay; No harm can befall with my Comforter near.
3. In the midst of affliction my table is spread; With blessings unmeasured my cup runneth over; With perfume and oil thou anoints my head; O what shall I ask of thy providence more?
4. Let goodness and mercy, my bountiful God, Still follow my steps till I meet thee above: I seek by the path which my forefathers trod, Thro' the land of their sojourn, Thy kingdom of love.
