1 The Lord my Shepherd is,
I shall be well supplied:
Since He is mine, and I am His,
What can I want beside?
I shall be well supplied:
Since He is mine, and I am His,
What can I want beside?
2 He leads me to the place
Where heavenly pasture grows,
Where living waters gently pass,
And full salvation flows.

And full salvation flows.
3 If e'er I go astray,
He doth my soul reclaim,
And guides me in His own right way,
For His most holy Name.

And guides me in His own right way,
For His most holy Name.
4 While He affords His aid,
I cannot yield to fear:
Though I should walk through death's dark shade,
My Shepherd's with me there.
