Author: Miss M. E. Thalheimer; Mrs. M. Scott-Haycroft Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #44 (1934) Meter: 5.6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Lyrics: 1 Thou art my Shepherd,
Caring in every need,
Watching Thy flock to feed;
I trust Thee still.
In the green pastures low,
Where living waters flow,
Safe by Thy side I go,
Fearing no ill.
2 Or if my way lie
Where darkening shadows nigh
My soul would terrify
With sudden chill,
Yet I am not afraid;
While softly on my head
Thy tender hand is laid,
I fear no ill.
3 Goodness and mercy
Ever shall follow me,
Till by Thy grace I see
Thy holy hill.
Lord, in that home with Thee,
Joyful eternally,
Folded Thy flock shall be,
Safe from all ill. Topics: Communion Service; Death; Funerals; Goodness of God; Guidance of God, of Christ; Heaven; Immortality; Mercy of God; Nearness to God; Post-Communion; God or Christ as Shepherd; Spiritual Life; Trust Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: MY SHEPHERD
