Poem Text

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he
     leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of
     righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
     shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou
     art with me; thy rod and thy staff they
     comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of   5
     mine enemies: thou anointest my head with
     oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the
     days of my life: and I will dwell in the
     house of the Lord for ever.
