524 The Twenty-Third Psalm

Words: Holy Bible: Psalm 23

Music: Paine Denson, 1950

Meter: Prose

The Lord is my Shepherd;
I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down
In green pastures;
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul.
He leadeth me in the paths
Of righteousness for His name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For Thou art with me;
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me
In the presence of my enemies;
Thou anointest my head with oil.
My cup runneth over;
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell
In the house of the Lord forever.
