My Shepherd Will Supply My Need

Mar 26, 2020

 

My Shepherd will supply my need: Jehovah is His name;

In pastures fresh He makes me feed, Beside the living stream. 

He brings my wandering 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 HIs presence is my stay;

One word of His supporting breath drives all my fears away.

His hand, in s ight of all my foes, doth still my table spread;

My cup with blessings overflows, His 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

 

Psalm 23, paraphrased by Isaac Watts
