Psalm 23 (Wilder)
Steffany Gretzinger's song is a musical setting of Psalm 23, expressing trust in God's care and guidance. The lyrics describe God as a shepherd who provides rest, refreshment, and protection even in dark times. The song emphasizes God's presence in the face of fear and His goodness and love following the believer throughout life. It concludes with the hope of dwelling in God's house forever, making it a comforting and reassuring piece for those seeking peace and security in their faith.
The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing
He makes me lie down in green pastures
He leads me beside quiet waters
He refreshes my soul
He guides me along the right paths
For His name's sake
Even though I walk through the darkest valley
I will fear no evil, for You are with me
Your rod and Your staff have comfort me
You prepare a table before me
In the presence of my enemies
You anoint my head with oil
My cup overflows
Surely, Your goodness
Surely, Your goodness and love
Surely, Your goodness and love will follow me
And all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever
