HYMN 336. God our good Shepherd. 3. METRE.

Psalm 23.

MY Shepherd is the living Lord, and he that doth me feed: How can I but be richly stor'd while he supplies my need? [verse 2] In pastures green and flourishing he makes me to repose: Hard by the silent water spring, whose stream with pleasure flows.
[verse 3] He guides my soul, so apt to stray, a safer course to take: Conducting me in his right way, for his alone Name sake. [verse 4] And though I walk in deaths dark shade, it shall me not dismay: For thou art with me, and hast made thy rod and staff my stay.

[verse 5] My Table spread thou didst appoint, in presence of my foe: My head with Oyl thou dost anoint, my cup doth over-flow. [verse 6] Thy grace and goodness certainly shall measure all my days: And in thy house, O God will I for ever give thee praise.
