The Lord is My Shepherd

     James Montgomery                                         Koschat


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 whne wand'ring, redeems when oppressed,
Restores me when wand'ring, redeems when oppressed.

Thro; the valley and shadow of death though I stray,
Since thou art my Guardian, no evil I fear;
Thy rod shall defend me, Thy staff be my stay;
No harm can befall, with my Comforter near,
No harm can befall, with my Comforter near,


Let goodness and mercy, my bountiful God!
Still follow my steps till I meet thee above;
I seek, by the path which my fore fathers trod
Thro' the land of their sojourn, thy kingdom of love,
Thro' the land of their sojourn, thy kingdom of love,


Amen.
