The Lord Is My Shepherd

I know no fear but only the fear of my LORD. I’m threatened and scourged, but in my LORD I will abode. I’m a sheep that walks with wolves and lions- That are ready to tear me apart with their mighty claws and teeth. But my LORD will pave my path to the heights of Mount Zion. And before them, by the might of my LORD, as a sheep I will bleat A bleat louder than their roar, for it comes out as thunder from high above, Brought by the ONE baptized with the Spirit of a Dove. And as His tender and mere sheep; My wool is filled by the warmth of His love And in the midst of the valley of the shadow of death, I will find sleep. And no evil will move in me a single nerve. For I know no fear but only the fear of the LORD.
