The Lord is my Shepherd
I have all I need
An overabundance
wherever I feed
Safe in green pastures
my constant reality
Sitting beside still water
drinking in tranquility
Whatever is lost
the Lord will restore
And give me more
than I had before
I gladly follow the Lord
to this place
Where I always win
in life's race
But sometimes the Lord
will go away
He calls my name
but I am content to stay
Avoiding the mountain
and the valley below
With rod and staff
He tries to make me go
In comfort I watch
as others follow Him
into a place where
the light is so dim
I will fear no evil
cause I know He'll return
To bless me again
even though His will I spurned
And Lord this table
You prepared is nice and all
But why in the world
did my enemies You call
Another time Lord
I will sit and sup
When I can drink
freely from my spiritual cup
All the days of my life
will be full of good
Surely in mercy
He will do what He should
I will dwell with the Lord
in this house of mine
Sitting atop the world
like a beacon I'll shine
Thank-you for the blessings
and all that You do
Thou Lord knowest
how much I love You |
