XXIII. I.-( 1, 2, 3. 5) MY Shepherd is the living Lord,
Nothing therefore I need:
0. V.
In pastures fair, near pleasant streams, He setteth me to feed.
He shall convert and glad my soul, And bring my mind in frame, To walk in paths of righteousness, For His most holy Name.
Thy rod and staff do comfort me, And Thou art with me still.
Yea, though I walk in vale of death, Yet will I fear no ill;
d
Through all my life Thy favour is So frankly show'd to me, That in Thy house for evermore My dwelling- place shall be. 17

XXIII. II.-( 1, 2, 3, 4. 6.)
N. V.
THE Lord Himself, the mighty Lord, Vouchsafes to be my Guide;
The Shepherd, by whose constant care My wants are all supplied.
In tender grass He makes me feed, And gently there repose;
Then leads me to cool shades, and where Refreshing water flows.
He does my wand'ring soul reclaim, And, to His endless praise,
Instruct with humble zeal to walk In His most righteous ways.
I
pass the gloomy vale of death,
From fear and danger free;
For there His aiding rod and staff Defend and comfort me.
Since God does thus His wondrous love Through all my life extend,
That life to Him I will devote,
And in His temple spend.
