THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD (Psalm 23)

Ant 1: His goodness shall follow me always to the end of my days.

Ant. 2: My shepherd is the Lord, nothing indeed shall I want.

Ant. 3: My shepherd is the Lord, nothing indeed shall I want.
             The Lord is my shepherd, nothing shall I want,
             He leads me by safe paths, nothing shall I fear.

  1. The Lord is my shepherd,
    There is nothing I shall want.
    Fresh and green are the pastures,
    Where he gives me repose.
    Near restful waters he leads me,
    To revive my drooping spirit.
  2. He guides me along the right path,
    He is true to his name.
    If I should walk in the valley of darkness,
    No evil would I fear.
    You are there with your crook and your staff;
    With these you give me comfort.
  3. You have prepared a banquet for me,
    In the sight of my foes.
    My head you have anointed with oil,
    My cup is overflowing.
  4. Surely goodness and kindness shall follow me,
    All the days of my life.
    In the Lord’s own house shall I dwell,
    Forever and ever.
  5. To the Father and Son give glory,
    Give glory to the Spirit.
    To God who is, who was, and who will be,
    For ever and ever.
