613. The Lord, the Lord, the Lord Is My Shepherd

1 The Lord, the Lord, the Lord is my shepherd,
The Lord, the Lord, the Lord is my shepherd,
The Lord, the Lord, the Lord is my shepherd,
The Lord is my shepherd and I shall not want.

2 He brings me rest in green, green pastures,
He leads me to the still, still waters,
He guides me along your own right way,
The Lord is my shepherd and I shall not want.

3 My fear is gone for he is with me,
His rod and staff bring comfort sure;
His goodness and mercy shall follow me,
The Lord is my shepherd and I shall not want.
