23 (4) | Psalm 23 Version 4 | 7 7. 7 7. 7 7 | |
JESUS the good Shepherd is; Jesus died the sheep to save; He is mine, and I am His; All I need in Him I have, Life, and health, and rest, and food, All the plenitude of God. |
|||
2 | Jesus loves and guards His own; Me in verdant pastures feeds; Makes me quietly lie down, By the streams of comfort leads: Following Him where’er He goes, Silent joy my heart o’erflows. |
||
3 | He in sickness makes me whole, Guides into the paths of peace; He revives my fainting soul, Stablishes in righteousness; Who for me agreed to die, Loves me stillI know not why! |
||
4 | Love divine shall still embrace, Love shall keep me to the end; Surely all my happy days I shall in Thy temple spend, Till I to Thy house remove, My eternal home above! |
