The Shepherds Psalm

Psalm 23 (A Limerick) “The Lord is my shepherd,” Said he, “And by the still water are we. Nothing I need… For in His pastures I feed. My soul He restores for me.” For His sake, He leads the right way. He keeps shadows of darkness at bay. The wicked will fail; Staff and rod shall prevail. There is comfort, He’ll not let me stray. In the presence of all of my foes, A table for me He bestows. Then, by pouring of oil, He declares that I’m royal! My cup, filled with blessing, overflows. Goodness and mercy shall last thru the end; All my life, I shall taste their sweet blend. Then, when I leave the ground, In God’s house I’ll be found; And eternity with Him I will spend!
