The Lord My Shepherd Is

Author: H. P. Fitch Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: The Lord has been my shepherd Lyrics: 1 The Lord has been my shepherd, My Savior and my guide; He has fed me from His bounty, He has all my wants supplied; Beside the crystal waters, He has led my erring feet; Of the richest of His pastures He has given me to eat. Refrain: The Lord my shepherd is— I shall be well supplied; The Lord my shepherd is— What can I want beside? My shepherd is beside me, And He will hold my hand, Till I pass beyond the darkness And reach the glory land. 2 When my soul grew faint and weary With the rough and rugged road, He restored its strength and courage With the promises of God; Yes, down beside the waters And in the pastures green, My soul has caught the vision, And His glory I have seen. [Refrain] 3 A table He has spread me, With the richest dainties stored; I have lived upon His goodness; I have feasted on His Word. He has guarded me from danger, And kept me day by day; And He has walked before me, And led me all the way. [Refrain] 4 I am nearing now the valley Of the shadow they call death; But no evil I am fearing, No cold and chilling breath; For my shepherd still is near me, With His blessèd staff and rod, And He will safely lead me Up to the home of God. [Refrain] 5 And now I’ve reached the river; I am waiting on the shore; Only waiting for the boatman To come and take me o’er; But my shepherd is beside me, And He will hold my hand, Till I sail beyond the darkness And reach the glory land. [Refrain] 6 Then when I reach the city, He will open wide the gate, And He will bid me enter, Where the ransomed saints await; There I’ll need the staff no longer, No longer need the rod, For I’ll dwell with Him forever In the dwelling place of God. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [The Lord has been my shepherd] Text Sources: Perfect Praise by James D. Vaughan, George W. Bacon, et al. (Lawrenceburg: Tenn: James D. Vaughan, 1905)
