Psalm 23

Psalms for Praying 
Nan C. Merrill 


O my Beloved, you are my shepherd, 
I shall not want; 
You bring me to green pastures for rest 
and lead me beside still waters 
renewing my spirit, 
You restore my soul. 
You lead me in the path of goodness 
to follow Love's way.    
 
Even though I walk through the valley
of shadow and death, 
I am not afraid; 
For you are with me; 
your rod and your staff they guide me,
they give me strength and comfort.
 
You prepare a table before me 
in the presence of all my fears; 
you bless me with oil,
my cup overflows. 
Surely goodness and mercy will 
follow me
all the days of my life; 
and I shall dwell in the heart  
of the Beloved 
forever.
