The Lord my pasture shall prepare
Author: Joseph Addison Hymnal: SoP1792 #H.XXXII (1792) Person Name: Joseph Addison Lyrics: 1 The Lord my pasture shall prepare,
And feed me with a shepherd's care;
His presence shall my wants supply,
And guard me with a watchful eye:
My noon-day walks he shall attend,
And all my midnight hours defend.
2 When in the sultry glebe I faint,
Or on the thirsty mountain pant;
To fertile vales, and dewy meads
My weary, wand'ring steps he leads,
Where peaceful rivers, soft and slow,
Amid the verdant landskip flow.
3 Though in the paths of death I tread,
With gloomy horrors overspread;
My stedfast heart shall fear no ill,
For thou, O Lord, art with me still:
Thy friendly crook shall give me aid,
And guide me through the dreadful shade.
4 Though in a bare and rugged way,
Through devious lonely wilds I stray;
Thy bounty shall my pains beguile,
The barren wilderness shall smile,
With sudden greens and herbage crown'd,
And streams shall murmur all around. Languages: English
The Lord my pasture shall prepare
When all thy mercies, O my God
Author: Joseph Addison Hymnal: SoP1792 #H.XXX (1792) Person Name: Joseph Addison Lyrics: 1 When all thy mercies, O my God,
My rising soul surveys;
Transported with the view, I'm lost
In wonder, love, and praise!
2 O how shall words with equal warmth
The gratitude declare,
That glows within my ravish'd heart?
But thou canst read it there.
3 Ten thousand thousand precious gifts
My daily thanks employ;
Nor is the least a chearful heart,
That tastes those gifts of joy.
4 Through every period of my life
Thy goodness I’ll pursue;
And after death in distant worlds,
The glorious theme renew.
5 When nature fails, and day and night
Divide thy works no more,
My ever-grateful heart, O Lord,
Thy mercy shall adore.
6 Through all eternity to thee
A joyful song I’ll raise;
For oh! eternity’s too short
To utter all thy praise. Languages: English
When all thy mercies, O my God
