Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He miaketh me tot he down ini green pastures: he leadeth me beside the
still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadleth me in the paths of righteousness for
his name's sake.
Yea, t hough I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will
fear eio evil: for thou art with me; thy rodl and thy staff they comfort
me.
Thou preparest a table before: me in the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness find mercy sliiall follow me all the dap of my life:: and
I will dwell in the: house of the LORD foir ever.
I'm Free
Don't grieve for me, fcir now I'm free,
I'm following the path Gad has laid you see.
I took His hand when I heard His call,
I turned my back and left it alL
I could not stay another day.
Tasks left undone must stay that way.
I've found peace at the close of day
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joys.
A friendslhip shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Oh with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much,
Good friends, good times,
a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seems all too britef,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts and peace to thee.
God wanted me now: He set me firee!
