Tune:DENNIS
Composer:Nageli

105b. 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.
