Lyrics:

The Lord is my shepherd;
therefore can I lack nothing.
He shall feed me in a green pasture,
and shall lead me forth beside the waters of comfort.
He shall convert my soul and bring me forth
in the paths of righteousness, for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through
the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil; for thou art with me,
thy rod and thy staff comfort me.
Thou shalt prepare a table before me
against them that trouble me.
Thou anointest my head with oil
and my cup shall be full.
But thy loving kindness and thy mercy shall follow me 
all the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever:
for thou art with me,
thy rod and thy staff comfort me.

Notes: SATB with Bass divisi.
