Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want
He makes me lie down in green pastures
He leads me beside still waters
He restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness for His namesake.
There is no need that He cannot fulfill
Whether His course for me points to the mountaintops of glorious ecstasy
Or to the valleys of human suff'ring
He is by my side
He is ever present with me
He is close beside me when I tread the dark streets of danger
And even when I flirt with Death itself
He will not leave me
When the pain is severe
He is near to comfort
When the burden is heavy
He is there to lean upon
When depression darkens my soul
He touches me with eternal joy!
When I feel empty and alone
He fills the aching vacuum with his power!
My security is in His promise to be near to me always,
And in the knowledge that He will never let me go
Truth and God's peace cannot be separated. They just can't.
