My Shepherd will supply my
need,
Jehovah is His name.
In pastures fresh He makes
me feed,
Beside the living stream.
He brings my wand’ring spirit
back,
When I forsake His ways.
And leads me for His mercy’s
sake
In paths of truth and grace.
When I walk through the
shades of death
Thy presence is my stay.
One word of Thy supporting
breath
Drives all my fears away.
Thy hand in sight of all my
foes,
Doth still my table spread.
My cup with blessings
overflows,
Thine oil anoints my head.
The sure provisions of my
God
Attend me all my days.
O may Thy house be my abode,
And all my work be praise.
There would I find a settled
rest,
While others go and come.
No more a stranger nor a
guest,
But like a child at home. |
