Thy rod and staff me comfort still, And staff me comfort still. 4 My table thou hast furnished In presence of my foes; My head with oil thou dost anoint, And my cup overflows. My head with oil thou dost anoint, And my cup overflows. 5 Goodness and mercy all my days Will surely follow me; And in my Father's heart always My dwelling place shall be. And in my Father's heart always My dwelling place shall be. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: MAROSA Text Sources: Scottish Psalter; Psalms of David in Meter

Hearts unfold like flowers before thee, Opening to the sun above. Melt the clouds of sin and sadness, Drive the dark of doubt away. Giver of immortal gladness, Fill us with the light of day. 2 All thy works with joy surround thee, Earth and heaven reflect thy rays, Stars and angels sing around thee, Center of unbroken praise. Field and forest, vale and mountain, Flowering meadow, flashing sea Chanting bird and flowing fountain Call us to rejoice in thee. 3 Thou art giving and forgiving, Ever blessing, ever blest. Wellspring of the joy of living, Ocean depth of happy rest. Thou our father, and our mother, All who live in love are thine. Teach us how to love each other, Lift us to the joy divine. 4 Mortals join the mighty chorus Which the morning stars began, Claim the place created for us In the great eternal plan. Hear our song, divine creator, Mother, father, friend and guide, We thy precious sons and daughters In thy light and love abide.
