9-8-14 Green Pastures and Still Waters

sheep-green-pasture

My shepherd leads me to the perfect place

Where rocky mountainside gives way to lea,

And there amid the clover of His grace

He knows that I will never go astray.

The water of His love is pure and still;

No babbling brook to make me start or stress.

Ev’ry time I drink I get my fill;

This living water’s never to excess.

My faith is led into His righteousness,

Invigorating both my heart and soul.

Away from worldly cares I convalesce

And rest until His love has made me whole.

            The Lord will make me lie in pasture green

            And lead me to still water so serene.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:

he leadeth me beside the still waters.

Psalm 23:2 KJV
