SHEPHERD PSALM

Lord God
you are my Keeper
my Protector
Thou providest all that I need

As I contemplate the magnificence of nature,
the green grass and leaves,
the tranquility of azure waters, lakes and skies,
it brings peace to my soul

Your spirit guides me
along that paths that lead to you,
You bequeath me solace

Even though I feel the wings of death
I do not fear it
Your Hand
drives away evil and sin

As a shepherd guides his sheep
with his staff,
so Your Hand guides me
brings me solace.

You triumph over my enemies
bring us together
in peace

Your hand bestows blessings
upon me
enriches my life with abundance

I pray that Your Grace
and Your Mercy
will accompany me
throughout my life’s journey

And I pray that one day
You will guide me to heaven
to live with you
for all eternity
