Lyrics
Verse 1
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.
Verse 2
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.
Verse 3
The sure provisions of my God Attend me all my days.
O may Thy house be mine 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.
