Psalm 23:1-6 KJVS

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
[2] He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
[3] He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
[4] Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

[5] Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
[6] Surely goodness and mercy d shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

When the Lord of all Calls you His own When He is your great Shepherd You'll never be alone For when you lose your way Or from the fold you stray He Will find you and carry you home. You will never want There's nothing more you need He gives you peace and rest In pastures so green He knows when you thirst To living waters he leads When the Lord of all Calls you His own When you walk through the valley When death stalks by so near Know the Shepherd watches And there's nothing to fear The rod and staff he carries Will never hurt you or harm It's for your protection and to guide you safely to his arms You will never want There's nothing more you need He gives you peace and rest In pastures so green He knows when you thirst To living waters he leads When the Lord of all Calls you His own Before the Enemy You show your care for me By setting your table with all my needs You Anoint my head with Oil To give me healing And fill my heart with joy And fill my heart with joy!
