The Hymnal and Order of Service ‎#480

480. The Lord My Shepherd Is

1 The Lord my Shepherd is,
I shall be well supplied;
Since He is mine and I am His,
What can I want beside?

2 He leads me to the place
Where heavenly pasture grows,
Where living waters gently pass,
And full salvation flows.

3 If e’er I go astray,
He doth my soul reclaim,
And guides me in His own right way,
For His most holy Name.

4 While He affords His aid,
I cannot yield to fear;
Though I should walk through death’s dark shade,
My Shepherd’s with me there.

5 The bounties of Thy love
Shall crown my coming days;
Nor from Thy house will I remove,
Nor cease to speak Thy praise.

Amen.
