The Lord Is My Shepherd

Softly as the sunset gently goes
Hymns sweetly rising above
Treasures of youth remembered
Each one a Psalm of love



Should a storm rage inside
Ever wanting to clear my mind
No place from God could I hide
It is then Psalms for Him I find



In childhood days Scriptures memorized
Not to be forgotten through the years
This Awesome Prayer was my prize
The sunset Psalm dries my tears

23RD PSALM



1. The LORD is my shepherd I shall not want


2. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me beside the still waters


3. He restoreth my soul
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake


4. 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


5. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies, thou anointest my head with oil, my cup runneth over


6. 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

The Good Shepherd Lyrics

There is a Shepherd and His sheep all know His voice.
They are safe and protected in the sheepfold of His choice.
We, too, can join them sharing life with God's own Son
If we only will follow when He calls us one by one.

He is my Friend. He walks with me.
The Shepherd true who leads me onward
Through days of joy and days of sorrow
For by His death, His dear blood bought me.
And when I strayed, in love He sought me
And brought me home in loving arms.

There is a Shepherd and His life He'll gladly give
For the sheep of His pasture,
washed in the blood that they might live.
Sheep found in pastures far are led by God's own Son.
We'll be one flock together for He calls us one by one.

He is my Friend. He walks with me.
The Shepherd true who leads me onward
Through days of joy and days of sorrow
For by His death, His dear blood bought me.
And when I strayed, in love He sought me
And brought me home in loving arms.
