The Lord's My Shepherd, I'll Not Want |
Francis Rous, 1650; his original is on the right column, 1646
The Lord's my Shepherd, I'll not want; He makes me down to lie In pastures green; He leadeth me The quiet waters by.
2. My soul He doth restore again
3. Yea, tho' I walk in death's dark vale,
4. My table Thou hast furnished
5. Goodness and mercy, all my life, | My Shepherd is the living Lord And He that doth me feed; How can I, then, lack anything Whereof I stand in need?
2. In pastures green and flourishing
3. And when I feele my selfe neere lost,
4. And though I were even at death's doore,
5. Thou hast my table richly stor'd
6. Thy grace and mercy all my daies |
