GATHERING WORDS
PRAYER
HYMN
‘The Lord Is My Shepherd’
The Lord’s my shepherd. I’ll not want.
He makes me down to lie in pastures green.
He leadeth me the quiet waters by.
My soul He doth restore again;
and me to walk doth make
within the paths of righteousness,
ev’n for His own name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale,
yet will I fear no ill:
for Thou art with me; and Thy rod
and staff me comfort still.
My table Thou hast furnished
in presence of my foes;
my head Thou dost with oil anoint,
and my cup overflows.
Goodness and mercy all my life
shall surely follow me:
and in God’s house for evermore
my dwelling-place shall be.
Psalm 23, Scottish Psalter 1650, Public Domain.
