Lyrics

Deep Love - Psalm 23 - Scott Epp

I am your shepherd and best friend
My comfort is complete.
My gifts are given without end
My love for you is deep.
I lead you to a place to sleep
My rest will find you there.
My streams refresh my little sheep
A peaceful bliss I share.
My restoring presence is here
Your yearning heart revive.
My righteous pathways will appear
My honour will reside.
Though you walk through gates of darkness
No evil shall you fear.
My comfort has replaced distress
For I am always near.
Protected by my rod and staff
Your comfort is secure.
I keep you from every wrath
My guidance will endure.

With food and drink that you desire
A feast I have prepared.
My wonderous hosting is entire
Nothing is ever spared.
Your enemies I have seated,
No need to be afraid.
At my table they are defeated,
Provision is displayed.
I anoint your forehead with oil
My acceptance is full.
Never fear befalling on toil
My cup will overflow.
Goodness and love are your treasure
You are never alone.
You shall dwell with me forever,
My house is always home.
I am your shepherd and best friend
My comfort is complete.
My gifts are given without end,
My love for you is deep.

I am your shepherd and best friend
My comfort is complete.
My gifts are given without end
My love for you is deep.
I lead you to a place to sleep
My rest will find you there.
My streams refresh my little sheep
A peaceful bliss I share.
My restoring presence is here
Your yearning heart revive.
My righteous pathways will appear
My honour will reside.
Though you walk through gates of darkness
No evil shall you fear.
My comfort has replaced distress
For I am always near.
Protected by my rod and staff
Your comfort is secure.
I keep you from every wrath
My guidance will endure.

With food and drink that you desire
A feast I have prepared.
My wonderous hosting is entire
Nothing is ever spared.
Your enemies I have seated,
No need to be afraid.
At my table they are defeated,
Provision is displayed.
I anoint your forehead with oil
My acceptance is full.
Never fear befalling on toil
My cup will overflow.
Goodness and love are your treasure
You are never alone.
You shall dwell with me forever,
My house is always home.
I am your shepherd and best friend
My comfort is complete.
My gifts are given without end,
My love for you is deep.
