Oh Lord, You're my shepherd
You make me lie in fields of green
You lead me by the still waters
You restore righteousness to me
Though I walk through the valley
I will feel no evil thing
For You are with me
And You comfort me
Surely goodness, love and mercy
Will follow wherever I go
Surely goodness, love and mercy
Will follow wherever I go
Surely goodness, love and mercy
Will follow wherever I go
Oh Lord, You're my shepherd
You make me lie in fields of green
You lead me by the still waters
You restore righteousness to me
Though I walk through the valley
I will feel no evil thing
For You are with me, God
And You comfort me
You comfort me
Surely goodness, love and mercy
Will follow wherever I go
Surely goodness, love and mercy
Will follow wherever I go
Surely goodness, love and mercy
Will follow wherever I go
Ooh, yeah
Wherever I go
Wherever I go
Surely, goodness and mercy
I'm gonna dwell in the house of the Lord forever
I said I'm gonna dwell in the house of the Lord forever
Sing it with me one time
I'm gonna dwell in the house of the Lord forever, yes I will
I'm gonna dwell in the house of the Lord forever
Wherever I go
Surely goodness, love and mercy
Will follow wherever I go
Surely goodness, love and mercy
Will follow wherever I go
Surely goodness, love and mercy
Will follow wherever I go
