In solace He took my hand And whispered "Come with me." With hopeful eyes you helped me fight Then saw me fade away. Your love gave me the strength I lacked But could not make me stay. My earnest heart ceased beating The spirit is at rest. In Jesus I am now at peace Thru Christ, forever blessed. * * * * * * * * * * * The Twenty-Third Psalm The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures. He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley 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
