My Shepherd is my Lord and God Lyrics

1. My Shepherd is my Lord and God

I shall not want for ever,

He sets me down to take my ease

In fresh tender meadows.

2. He leads me out by peaceful streams

Of cool, refreshing waters.

He guides me right by chosen paths,

He is my faithful Shepherd.

3. In darkness I shall know no fear,

For you are by me always,

I look to Shepherd’s crook and staff

To comfort and protect me.

4. For me you have prepared a feast

Where all my foes can see me

You pour your oil upon my head,

My cup is brimming over.

5. Your love and kindness will be mine

Through all the days that follow.

The house of God shall be my home,

For ever and for ever.
