1. My Shepherd will supply my need;
   Jehovah is his name;
   In pastures fresh he makes me feed,
   Beside the living stream.
   He brings my wandering spirit back,
   When I forsake his ways,
   And leads me, for his mercy's sake,
   In paths of truth and grace.

2. When I walk through the shades of death
   Thy presence is my stay;
   One word of thy supporting breath
   Drives all my fears away.
   Thy hand, in sight of all my foes,
   Doth still my table spread;
   My cup with blessings overflows,
   Thine oil anoints my head.

3. The sure provisions of my God
   Attend my all my days;
   O may thy house be mine abode,
   And all my work be praise!
   There would I find a settled rest,
   (While others go and come,)
   No more a stranger, nor a guest;
   But like a child at home.
