The Lord is my shepherd.
He meets all my needs.
I rest in green pastures.
My soul He does feed.
He leads to the water
That quiets all fear,
And guides me in paths
Of righteousness, so dear.
Some day I will walk
Through the valley of death,
But He’ll give me comfort
Till I take my last breath.
He’ll prepare a table
And anoint my head.
My cup overflows.
By His spirit I’m fed.
Goodness and mercy
Will forever be mine.
And I’ll dwell in the house
Of God’s great design.
(Based on Psalm 23)
Each year, as I read through the Bible and come to Psalms, I delight in its eternal treasures. Its words of wisdom and faith guide me to see God’s timeless love, His promises, and His glory. Take a few moments each day to read through Psalms and experience the blessings for yourself.
Seven blessings from Psalm 23.
- He heals your wounds. “He restores my soul.”
- He gives you provisions. “I shall not want.”
- He gives you peace. “He makes me lie down….and leads me by still waters.”
- He protects you in difficult times. “Though I walk through the valley….you are with me.”
- He gives you victory. “He prepares a table before you in the presence of your enemies.”
- He gives you joy. “He anoints my head with oil. My cup runs over….”
- He gives you security. “I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”
