2 He leads me to the tender grass, Where I both feed and rest; Then to the streams that gently pass, In both I have the best.
3 And if I stray, he doth convert And bring my mind in frame, And all this not for my desert, But for his holy name.
4 And in death's shady black abode Well may I walk, not fear; For thou art with me, and thy rod To guide, thy staff to bear.
5 Thou makest me to sit and dine Even in mine enemies fight; My head with Oil, my cup with Wine Flows over day and night.
