Author: Christpher M. Idle Hymnal: CBOW1994 #489 (1994) Scripture: Psalm 23 Lyrics: 1 The Lord, my shepherd, rules my life
And gives me all I need;
He leads me by refreshing streams;
In pastures green I feed.
2 The Lord revives my failing strength,
He makes my joy complete;
And in right paths, for his name's sake,
He guides my faltering feet.
3 Though in a valley dark as death,
No evil makes me fear;
Your shepherd's staff protects my way,
For you are with me there.
4 While all my enemies look on,
You spread a royal feast;
You fill my cup, anoint my head
And treat me as your guest.
5 Your goodness and your gracious love
Pursue me all my days;
Your house, O Lord, shall be my home,
Your name, my endless praise. Topics: Comfort/Consolation; Faith Journey; Jesus; Order of Christian Funerals Vigils - Hymns; Order of Christian Funerals Funeral Liturgy; Shepherd; Trust in God Languages: English Tune Title: CRIMOND
