Lyics

1 THE Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want;

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;

He leadeth me beside the still waters.



2 He restoreth my soul; 

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness 

for His name's sake.

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.



3 Thou preparest a table before me, 

in the presence of mine enemies;

Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me 

all the days of my life;

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Amen.
