Psalm 23 (Nab) Poem by Justin Reamer

Psalm 23 (Nab)



The Lord is my shepherd;
there is nothing I lack.
In green pastures You let me graze;
to safe waters You lead me;
You restore my strength.
You guide me along the right path
for the sake of Your Name.
Even when I walk through a dark valley
I fear no harm for You are at
my side;
Your rod and staff give me
courage.
You set a table before me
as my enemies watch;
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Only goodness and love will
pursue me all the days of my life;
I will dwell in the House of the
Lord for years to come.
