“Goodness and Mercy”

Rebecca Kent

The Lord watches over me all the daylong,

He blesses me with all that I need.

He brings me to places that satisfy my soul,

Yea to places that show me my way.

Even though my path leads me through trials galore,

And I sometimes wonder if I’m on the right trail.

God is by my side, so who shall I fear?

His hand leads me through my great fears.

And God, You have prepared me a path that shall show,

All of those that filled me with doubt,

That You have been by my side the whole way,

And that I am a child of God.

Your hand has blessed me today and forever,

My joy has been made new.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me,

And I shall be with You, forever.

[Psalm 23]
