My Shepherd Is the Living Lord

Author: Thomas Sternhold; Isaac Watts Hymnal: RITL1985 #91 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 My Shepherd is the living Lord nothing therefore I need; in pastures fair, near pleasant streams he setteth me to feed. He brings my wand'ring spirit back when I forsake his ways, and leads me for his mercy's sake in paths of truth and grace. 2 When I walk through the shades of death, thy presence is my stay; a word of thy supporting breath drives all my fears away. Thy hand, in sight of all my foes, doth still my table spread; my cup with blessings overflows, thine oil anoints my head. 3 The sure provisions of my God attend me all my days; O may thy house be mine abode, and all my work be praise. There would I find a settled rest, while others go and come-- no more a stranger or a guest, but like a child at home. Scripture: Psalm 23 Languages: English Tune Title: RESIGNATION

Earth Is Eternally the Lord's

Hymnal: RITL1985 #92 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Earth is eternally the Lord's, its fullness his alone; the world and all that dwell therein he made to be his own. For on the wide expanse of seas he founded it secure; he on the floods established it, and made it to endure. 2 Who may ascend the mount where stands God's holy dwelling place, or in his sanctuary may appear before his face? The clean of hands, the pure of heart, who ne'er their souls have lent to wrongful act, nor sworn an oath that masked a false intent. 3 Such are they all who from the Lord a blessing rich shall win; God with his mercies crowns their life and shields their souls within. Such must their generation be who to the heights aspire, who seek the face of Israel's God, and after him inquire. Topics: God Search for Scripture: Psalm 24 Languages: English Tune Title: ST.
