My Shepherd

Thoro Harris • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 23

Verse 1

Christ Jesus is my Shepherd, My needs He doth supply; In green and pleasant pastures He causes me to lie. Beside the quiet waters How sweet is my repose! And since His light shines round me My heart no sorrow knows.

Chorus

Christ Jesus is my Shepherd, My true and faithful Guide; His providence shall alway For His own flock provide.

Verse 2

In paths of perfect safety He leads me on my way, And when I tread death’s valley His word shall be my stay. His rod and staff support me, And should I miss the road, This kind and gentle Shepherd Will bring me back to God.

Chorus

Christ Jesus is my Shepherd, My true and faithful Guide; His providence shall alway For His own flock provide.

Verse 3

A table Thou preparest Amid my angry foes, And Thy great loving-kindness Thou dost to me disclose. My cup, it runneth over With blessings all divine; And so, O gracious Shepherd, I joy to call Thee mine.

Chorus

Christ Jesus is my Shepherd, My true and faithful Guide; His providence shall alway For His own flock provide.
