1 The Lord himself my shepherd is, Who doth me feed and [safely] keep; What can I want that's truly good, While I am [one of] his own sheep?
1 THe Lord himself my shepherd is, Who doth me feed and [safely] keep; What can I want that's truly good, While I am [one of] his own sheep?
2 He makes me to lie down and rest In [pleasant] pastures, tender grass; He keeps and gently leadeth me Near [the sweet] streams of quietness.
3 My failing soul he doth restore, And lead in [safe and] righteous ways; And all this freely, that his grace And [holy] Name may have the praise.
