Dispelled

She sang, 
"The Lord is my Shepard...There is nothing I shall want..."

Those words and the melody from the piano, 
filled the sanctuary, 
with the glory of God. 

"The Lord is my Shepard..."

He looks out for and cares for all of us, 
he has numbered the hairs on our heads, 
he heals us with his words, 
his words are the ways of life and truth.

"There is nothing I shall want..."

Even to the point of death, 
no fear of evil will touch me, 
the Lord has spoken, 
all I need comes from him, 
he holds my soul in his hands.

All the shadows, 
cast by the valley of death, 
have been dispelled.
