The Lord is my Shepherd forever,
He maketh me down to lie,
He leads me beside the still waters
O how He does satisfy!
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.
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.

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!

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!
My will, and emotion, and mind;
And though through the valley I’m walking,
O what a Companion I find!

A table prepared by my Shepherd
I feast on and Satan destroy;
My head is anointed with oil,
My cup runneth over with joy!
I feast on and Satan destroy;
My head is anointed with oil,
My cup runneth over with joy!

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!
Enjoying the goodness of God;
My pleasure is far beyond telling,
My pleasure is Jesus my Lord!

He is Indeed Jehovah Jireh - As we look to this great Shepherd of our souls He will bring us beside the still waters and 'There' He will provide for us. His paths are always Straight. There is a place where He wants us to be and so long as we are there He will be faithful to His word. He is the chief Shepherd!

Great song, perfect lyrics, touching words. With this meditation daily, we need not fear or dread our Shepherd's total and a cocksure provision. He is indeed JEHOVAH-RAAH.

This song is so special. It says everything about our relationship with God. My mum passed away hearing this passage read to her, it gave her the strength to go to our beloved Saviour,knowing His unending love.

I testified He is my Shepherd forever including these days. He knows how to shepherd me and knows who can do this task with. He is wonderful and the shepherd He gave me is as wonderful as He is.

This song is wonderful, I love the psalm it comes from, Psalm 23 which reminds us that our precious Lord is our Shepherd and no matter what stage of our christian life we are at, He can meet our needs!!

This is my favorite verse in the whole Bible.
This song is so wonderful, because it reminds us that the Lord is the One shepherding us daily. Hopefully, it can be moment by moment. I am reminded of the wonderful Blending Conference that we had last weekend, because we all thoroughly enjoyed this hymn. This will defintely remain a favorite of mine.
