My Shepherd Will Supply My Need

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 235 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 40:11 Lyrics: 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 wand'ring 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 me all my days; O may Thy house be my 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. Amen. Topics: God the Father Care and Guidance Used With Tune: RESIGNATION
