The Lord is my Shepherd Song

Verse 1.
THE LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside the still waters.

Chorus
He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. The Heavens declare the glory of GOD; and the firmament showeth his handiwork.

Verse 2
Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for though art with me thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

Chorus
He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. The Heavens declare the glory of GOD; and the firmament showeth his handiwork.

Verse 3
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou anointest my head oil; my cup runneth over.
