The New 23rd

Psalm 23

Ralph Carmichael

  C                    F 
Because the Lord is my shepherd, 
       G                 C
I have everything that I need.
   F                
He lets me rest in meadows green
    C       G            C
And leads me besides the quiet stream
      F                           C      
He keeps on giving life to me and helps me 
    G             C
to do what honors Him the most.
Am                                 Em        Am       
Even when walking through the dark valley of death,
          Em
Valley of death,
Am         E Am  
I will never be afraid,
D   G     F       G
For He is close beside me,
C                         F6/c=x30211
Guarding, guiding all the way.
   G                 C 
He spreads a feast before me
       F
In the presence of my enemies;
   C          G       C
He welcomes me as His special guest
     Am        E   Am           
With blessings overflowing, 
    F                      E
His goodness and unfailing kindness
         Am      E         Am       
Shall be with me all of my life.  
    Dm        G        C
And afterwards, I will live with Him
   G#       Gsus         C       
Forever, forever, in His home; 
   F6/c        C        F6/c        C
Forever in His home; forever in His home!
