PSALM 23

The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want

He maketh me lie down in green pastures

He leadeth me beside the still waters

He restoreth my soul

He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness

For His name's sake

Though I walk through the valley

Of the shadow of death

I will fear no evil (ed:  "For thou art with me" accidentally ommitted in recording)

Thy rod and the staff they comfort me

Thou preparest a table before me

In the presence of mine enemies

Thou anointest my head with oil

And my cup runneth over

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

All the days of my life

And I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever

 

(repeat according to the music score)

Testimonial by a lady on this version of the 23rd Psalm:

"You know me from Michael Christiansen and Oak Street House Ministry.   You taught me your rendition 'The Lord is my Shepherd... '  I  had had a piano in my house, with roommates on Sadowa Street... I was raped in San Francisco and that song saved my life as I sang it to that man  could have been the end of my life...so technically you saved my life in San Fran!"  S. R.
