The Lord is my shepherd, I have everything I need, He lets me rest in fields of green grass, And leads me to quiet pools of fresh water, He gives me new strength, He guides me as promised, Even if that way goes through deepest darkness, I will not be afraid Lord BECAUSE YOU ARE WITH ME! Your shepherds rod and staff protect me I am sure your goodness and kindness Will follow me everyday of my life And your house will be my home forever. AMEN.
