The Lord’s my Shepherd, I’ll not want

1
The Lord’s my Shepherd, I’ll not want;
  He makes me down to lie
In pastures green; He leadeth me
  The quiet waters by.
2
My soul He doth restore again,
  And me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness,
  E’en for His own name’s sake.
3
Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale,
  Yet will I fear no ill;
For Thou art with me, and Thy rod
  And staff me comfort still.
4
My table Thou hast furnished
  In presence of my foes;
My head Thou dost with oil anoint,
  And my cup overflows.
5
Goodness and mercy all my life
  Shall surely follow me,
And in God’s house forevermore
  My dwelling-place shall be.

This is my favourite version of Psalm 23 and I love to sing it to the residents of our Retirement village, would it be possible to please, pretty please send me the music for piano? If it's not too much to ask?

Blessings!

God bless you.

Every time and any moment I remember or hear this song, my soul praises The Lord for His great provision. Having lost my dear Dad at age nine, only to have a mother, Elder Mrs Arit Ikon Akpabio, becoming the only father I know from then, life was tough but Jehovah manifested in our family. In my dialect it start like this; Jehovah Andikpemerong, Ofon eti eti, Iyak-ke mi nnana se, Ofonde ye Ami.

This beautiful hymn I sang the descant to in the School Choir in the mid 1980"s and now my darling, wonderful daughter is learning this to sing with her choir ... Time and life a bright flame to share in song and succession. All is well. My heart is full.

Haven't heard this in years—just heard the tail end of it while watching Chariots of Fire and had to look it up. I remember this being a regular hymn in my younger days but they don't seem to do this one so much anymore. Wish I heard I heard it more often.

Psalm 23 is a favourite, so it goes without saying that this is a very special hymn to me - I've loved it since my primary school days and my love for it just keeps growing. It's loaded with biblical truth.

This is my favorite psalm and was my father's also until he passed away, he has the words The Lord s My Shepherd on his head stone.

I like this hymn so I much. I guess it's my favorite hymn. It comforts the child of God, and reassures them of God's love and care for them. If you are not born again, get born again (Acts 16:31, Romans 10:9-10) and keep this hymn as your daily anthem.
