Hymnal: Christ in Song #666 (1908) First Line: The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know Lyrics: 1 The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know,
I feed in green pastures, safe folded I rest,
He leadeth my soul where the still waters flow,
Restores me when wand'ring, redeems when oppress'd,
Restores me when wand'ring, redeems when oppress'd.
2 Thro the valley and shadow of death tho' I stray,
Since Thou art my Guardian, no evil I fear;
Thy rod shall deend me, Thy staff be my stay;
No harm can befall, with my Comforter near,
No harm can befall, with my Comforter near.
3 In the midst of affliction my table is spread;
With blessings unmeasured my cup runneth o'er;
With perfume and oil Thou anointest my head;
Oh, what shall I ask of Thy providence more?
Oh, what shall I ask of Thy providence more?
4 Let goodness and mercy, my bountiful God,
Still follow my steps till I meet Thee above,
I seek by the path which my forefather trod,
Thro' the land of their sojourn, Thy kingdom of love,
Thro' the land of their sojourn, Thy kingdom of love.
