GOD is my constant companion
His love meets my every needs
Wherever I go he guides me
My soul with His Spirit he feeds
Whether I'm high in the mountains
Or deep in the valley steep
His rod and His staff they comfort me
And close by his side I will keep !
Ee'n though I walk in the shadow of death
He gives strength to my arm
Scatters my enemies ~ restores my health
Protects me from wounding and harm
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
Every day that I live of the life I've been given
And when I die ~ I'll be lifted on high
For eternity ~ with my God ~ in HEAVEN
Thanks for reading ~ comments welcome ~ Yours BRIAN

- Comment from author about the poem: The Book of Psalms is in the Bible ~ Old Testament and it contains truth about JEHOVAH shared equally between Christians and Jews. There are 150 and I read one ~ systematically ~ every day. There are 150 Psalms so in a year i read each one twice and some three times ! In the UK the Gideons give each 11 year-old as they start Secondary School a copy of the New Testament and The Psalms. Why not try reading a Psalm every day ~ it will give you spiritual comfort and guidance to face each new day ~ AMEN. Love to all BRIAN XOX

Thanks RR ~ The PSALMS are in essence a sacred (inspired by GOD) collection of 150 Jewish Poems. It is just a question ~ in being creative ~ of restoring some of the poetic flow ! Yours BRIAN

The lord is my shepherd

He leadeth me beside the still waters
