-<poem>
-. My shepherd is the living Lord,
-Nothing therefore I need;
-In pastures fair, near pleasant streams,
-He setteth me to feed.
-. He shall convert and glad my soul,
-And bring my mind in frame,
-To walk in paths of righteousness,
-For his most holy name.
-. Yea, though I walk in vale of death,
-Yet will I fear no ill;
-Thy rod and staff doth comfort me,
-And thou art with me still.
-. And in the presence of my foes
-My table thou hast spread;
-Thou wilt fill full my cup, and thou
-Anointed hast my head.
-. Through all my life thy favour is
-So frankly shew’d to me,
-That in thy house for evermore
-My dwelling place shall be.
