Lyrics

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.
He leads me for his mercy's sake
In paths of truth and grace.

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 all my foes doth still my table spread. My cup with blessings overflows thine oil anoints my head. blessings over flows thine 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, There would i find a settled rest where others go and come. No more a strangers or a guest, but like a child at home.
