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.
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.
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.
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.
In presence of my foes;
My head Thou dost with oil anoint,
And my cup overflows.

Goodness and mercy all my life
Shall surely follow me,
And in God’s house forevermore
My dwelling-place shall be.
Shall surely follow me,
And in God’s house forevermore
My dwelling-place shall be.

When the son of man shall come, shall He find faith on Earth? Feels good to know His own is here occupying till He comes. Trusting Him for protection, for guidance, declaring it in songs as this & helping others to access it. God bless you all in Jesus Name. Kindly remain unappologetically God's sheep in a decaying world. Remain blameless but wise. Jesus will soon ( still) come ( only) for His own. Love... Shalom!

Thank you for this. This is the way I sang it in school. They have changed it now. Not for the better.
