Psalm 23

 

 1 

The Lord is my Shepherd forever,

   He maketh me down to lie,

He leads me beside the still waters

   O how He does satisfy!

 

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever,

And I shall feast at the table spread for me;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

 

 2 

My Shepherd Himself is my pasture,

   My Shepherd, the waters of rest;

I eat of His riches in spirit,

   I drink, and O how I am blest!

 

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever,

And I shall feast at the table spread for me;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

 

 3 

My Shepherd my soul is restoring,

   My will, and emotion, and mind;

And though through the valley I'm walking,

   O what a Companion I find!

 

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever,

And I shall feast at the table spread for me;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

 

 4 

A table prepared by my Shepherd

   I feast on and Satan destroy;

My head is anointed with oil,

   My cup runneth over with joy!

 

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever,

And I shall feast at the table spread for me;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

 

 5 

And now in His house I am dwelling

   Enjoying the goodness of God;

My pleasure is far beyond telling,

   My pleasure is Jesus my Lord!

 

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;

And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever,

And I shall feast at the table spread for me;

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

   All the days, all the days of my life;
