The Lord Is My Shepherd

the Lord is my sheperd
he watches over me both day and night
he keeps me closley within his sight
the Lord is my sheperd
in him I am truly alive
he nurtures me and he makes me thrive
the Lord is my sheperd
he gudes me down the paths that I should go
he strengthens me and he helps me to grow
the Lord is my sheperd
he stands by me through thick and thin
I know his voice and I always follow him
the Lord is my sheperd
I will always stay by his side
the Lord is my sheperd and in him I will always abide. Amen

THE LORD IS  THE GOOD SHEPERD, WHO ALWAYS LOOKS AFTER HIS SHEEP.

Thanks for your comments. I certainly enjoyed reading this awesome one too. It's so nice when someone takes the time to read and make a comment on other peoples intropections. One question from me: With me being new on this place, does it seem odd for me to jest with another poet (Almost Dead} with a comedy reply of limerick to his one poem Meisterpeace. Read it please, and let me know if I'm out of line please?...Thank you much.
