*from Dvořák’s Biblical Songs, Op. 99, B. 185

The Lord is my Shepherd,
Therefore can I lack nothing.
He doth lead me where the green pastures grow,
By the quiet waters of comfort.
He restoreth my soul,
And doth lead me 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, no evil,
For Thou art my guide.
And Thy rod and Thy staff,
They shall comfort me.
