The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want
He makes me like down in green fields
The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want
He leads me beside waters still
He restores my soul
He restores my soul
For the sake of His Name He guides my wayward soul
Even though I walk through the valley of
The shadow of death
I will fear no evil for You are here
Your rod and Your staff will protect and comfort
You restore my soul
You restore my soul
For the sake of Your Name You guide my wayward soul
You prepare me a table in the presence of my enemies
You anointed my head with oil, my cup overflows
You prepare me a table in the presence of my enemies
You anointed my head with oil, my cup overflows
Surely goodness and mercy will follow all the days of my life
And forever I'll dwell in the house of the Lord
And forever I'll dwell in the house of the Lord
And forever I'll dwell in the house of the Lord
And forever I'll dwell in the house of the Lord
He restores my soul
He restores my soul
For the sake of His Name He guides my wayward soul
You restore my soul
You restore my soul
For the sake of Your Name You guide my wayward soul
The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want
He makes me like down in green fields
The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want
He leads me beside waters still
