My Shepherd Will Supply My Need — Choir of Washington National Cathedral
Loading...
Uploaded by 1finch2finch on Sep 3, 2011
The Choir of Washington National Cathedral, under the direction of Michael McCarthy, perform Isaac Watts' hymn 'My Shepherd Will Supply My Need', a re-working of the familiar text of Psalm 23, which begins: 'The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want'.
The Choir performed this hymn beautifully in a memorial service in September 2001, shortly after the attacks on Washington and New York City on September 11. I have uploaded it here in remembrance of the tenth anniversary of those attacks.
[ Text: ]
My Shepherd will supply my need:
Jehovah is His Name;
In pastures fresh He makes me feed,
Beside the living stream.
He brings my wandering spirit back
When I forsake His ways,
And leads me, for His mercy's sake,
In paths of truth and grace.
When I walk through the shades of death
Thy presence is my stay;
One word of Thy supporting breath
Drives all my fears away.
Thy hand, in sight of all my foes,
Doth still my table spread;
My cup with blessings overflows,
Thine oil anoints my head.
The sure provisions of my God
Attend me all my days;
O may Thy house be my abode,
And all my work be praise
.
There would I find a settled rest,
While others go and come;
No more a stranger, nor a guest,
But like a child at home.
