“The Lord is my Shepherd" - PS. 23:1



1.  THE King of love my Shepherd is

     Whose goodness faileth never 

    I nothing lack if l am His

    And He is mine for ever.


2.  Where streams of living water flow 

     My ransoned soul He leadeth,

     And where the verdant pastures grow 

     With food celestial feedeth.


3.  Perverse and foolish oft l strayed 

     But yet in love He soughl me 

     And on His shoulder gently land 
    
     And home rejoicing brought me.


4.  In death‘s dark vale, I fear no ill 

     With Thee, dear Lord, beside me 

     Thy rod and staff my comfort still 

     Thy Cross before to guide me.


5.  Thou spread’st a table in my sight 

     Thy unction grace bestoweth 

     And O what transport of delight 

     From Thy pure chalice floweth!


6.  And so through all the length of days 

     Thy goodness faileth never

     Good Shepherd, may I sing Thy praise 

     Within Thy house forever!  Amen
