The 23rd Psalm
The Lord is my shepard; I have every thing I will ever need.
He lets me rest in green meadows that started from a tiny seed.

The Lord leads me beside peaceful streams and renews my strength,
He guides me along right paths - bringing honor to His name.
When I walk through the valley of death I will not be afraid,
the Lord will protect and comfort me - His love stays the same.

The Lord prepares a feast for me in the presence of my enemies - He welcomes me as a guest.
He anoints my head with oil and my cup overflows with blessings and eternal rest.

Surley, the Lord's goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life - that love will not sever.
Dear Lord, you have blessed me and one day I will live in your house forever and ever!
