Lyrics

  1. The Lord’s my shepherd, I’ll not want. He makes me down to lie in pastures green; He leadeth me the quiet waters by.
  2. My soul He doth restore again; and me to walk doth make within the paths of righteousness, e’en for His own Name’s sake.
  3. Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale, yet will I fear none ill: for Thou art with me; and Thy rod and staff me comfort still.
  4. My table Thou hast furnished in presence of my foes; my head Thou dost with oil anoint, and my cup overflows.
  5. Goodness and mercy all my life shall surely follow me: and in God’s house forevermore my dwelling place shall be.
