The 23rd Psalm

1. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 1. His worthy Psalm: Ah! thrill to need's end.
2. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 2. God help! Tired, I meet Him there at last, in the lush meadows between serene lakes.
3. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 3. He refresheth my spirit: so I shun lust, go ahead as son, meek on the heels of the Master.
4. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and they staff they comfort me. 4. Oh my! A halo of death!  Go thou forth to safety, with healthy, unwavering  faith; amidst the very wicked hell of the fury of the mortal world.
5. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 5. O at peace in the Lord! If he remembers to rain immense bounty upon me, then arch-foes without seethe in perpetual envy.
6. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. 6. A delightful holy life, far from Hell, follows marvellous, well-endowed, charmed earthly odyssey. Eons on end, it is!
