| O |
The Lord is My Shepherd;
I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside still waters. He restoreth my soul; He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Yea, through I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.  |
| When lambs are born, they do not know the voice of
their shepherd, but they quickly learn to recognize it and trust it.
Once they do, other shepherds can call that lamb, but it will respond
only to its master's voice, which it knows so well.
