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 no 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. |

I have been painting a sunset on canvas and want to write on it the hymn version of Psalm 23. It means so much to me as I was brought up with this Hymn and needed this version. I now understand exactly what it means! Glory be to God. Thank you for posting this hymn

Thank you for posting this. I was reading a story about the 23rd psalm to my 3 year old daughter tonight (Alice in Bibleland series), and I sang her the hymn after. I could not remember beyond the first verse! She fell asleep by verse 4, so I know she was sleepy!

The Lord's my shepherd. I have no want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for His Name's sake.

How beautiful it was to see how our Father has united His children all over the world with His Word. As I read through the comments posted about this hymn that has been a favorite of mine for my entire life, I am able to witness how He is working in the lives of Christians AROUND THE WORLD! How Great is our God! How faithful! How magnificent! How enduring! How unstoppable! Your words have encouraged me today fellow brothers and sisters. We serve a wonderful Savior.

With all that is going on in our world today, plus having a very sick husband to care for, and only the two of us in the house, I broke my heart last night (19th. November) and felt I could not carry on any more, and was trying to think of an easy way to end my life. After I said 'The Lord's Prayer', as I always do, what suddenly came to mind was the hymn, 'The Lord is My Shepherd', but for the life of me, I could not remember all the words, and I was determined to look them up when I got up this morning, which I did, but not only that, as I was trying to memorise the words, a calmness came over me. I stopped crying, and concentrated on my Lord and Saviour. He put that Hymn in my head, and it gave me a lot of thought, that without Him, I would be lost, but, I am not without Him, He is always with me, and thank you for putting this site on the Internet. Oh, I am also nearly 79. May God Bless you ALL.
How great is our God
