Psalm 23
The Corner Room Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He makes me lie down in green pastures
He leads me beside still waters
He restores my soul
He leads me in paths of righteousness... for His name-sake
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil
for you are with me Your rod and your staff they comfort me
they comfort me
You prepare a table before me, in the presence of my enemys You anoint my head with oil, my cup overflows
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me




All the days of my life
And I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever, forever, Forever, forever (repeat)... I shall dwell in the house of the LORD(repeat)... I shall dwell in the house of the LORD is my shepherd I shall not want.

We've been getting so much encouragement lately to learn to memorize/sing the Psalms...I randomly stumbled across you guys from an article I read about it...on our way to church today, I told my husband what an incredible joy it is to have the songs stuck in my head and remember, "Oh my goodness! This is Scripture!" 💛 I've been sharing your work with everyone I can. God bless you guys! Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!
