I know my Shepherd gives me peace
The Lord is by my side
For every day He walks with me
The Lord is by my side
The Lord is by my side
Forever by my side
His hope, His strength, His peace is mine
The Lord is by my side
I know my Shepherd gives me strength
The Lord is by my side
For I am small and He is great
The Lord is by my side
The Lord is by my side
Forever by my side
His hope, His strength, His peace is mine
The Lord is by my side
I know my Shepherd gives me hope
The Lord is by my side
For He will lead me safely home
The Lord is by my side
The Lord is by my side
Forever by my side
His hope, His strength, His peace is mine
The Lord is by my side
And when I look back I will surely see
Your goodness and love they have followed me
For when I look back I will surely see
My Shepherd has laid down his life for me
And when I look back I will surely see
Your goodness and love they have followed me
For when I look back I will surely see
My Shepherd has laid down his life for me
The Lord is by my side
Forever by my side
His hope, His strength, His peace is mine
The Lord is by my side
The Lord is by my side
Forever by my side
His hope, His strength, His peace is mine
The Lord is by my side
