The Lord is my Shepherd,
what more do I need . . .
whenever I am hungry
on His Word I feed.
He renews my spirit,
my soul He repairs
sends me into the world
knowing I’ll be prepared.
The Lord is my Shepherd,
I trust Him to guide . . .
and give me the strength
to keep up with His stride.
Through times are troubled,
I have nothing to fear
for I know my Lord
will always be near.
The Lord is my Shepherd,
I have all that I need . . .
He steady’s my feet
so to His ways I’ll heed.

Psalm 23:1
“The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.”

God guides my feet,
over mountain tops
onto high ground . . .
in faith, they do hop.
He leads my steps,
through jagged spaces
to prove to me . . .
significant is His grace.
He shines His light,
ahead of my steps
my soles He secures . . .
His love they project.
He takes me to places,
never before explored
to show me why it is . . .
I call Him my Lord.
He sets me up high,
gives me a glorious view
so His mercy my soul . . .
He can restore and renew!
~~~~~~~~
Psalm 18:33
He makes my feet
like the feet of deer,
And sets me on
my high places.

A light unto my path,
a brighter day I’ll see
for Jesus is the beam . . .
shining inside of me.
A lamp unto my feet,
His ways for me to see
for Jesus is the glow . . .
radiating out of me.
A candle in my darkness,
a flicker of hope to see
for Jesus is the sparkle . . .
twinkling all around me.
A lantern to my soul,
a glimmer for all to see
for Jesus is the shimmer . . .
reflecting out of me.
A torch unto my heart,
a spark that I can see
for Jesus is the flame . . .
burning deep in me!

Psalm 119:105
Thy word is a lamp
unto my feet,
and a light

John 8:12
Then spake Jesus again
unto them, saying,
I am the light of the world:
he that followeth me shall
not walk in darkness
but shall have the light of life.

When we begin to wander,
go about our own way
the Lord takes notice
knowing we will stray.
As we drift off the path,
of truth and understanding
He knows we’ve departed
from the road everlasting.
He recognizes our error,
He sees that we are inapt
to seek and find for ourselves
the road that’ll take us back.
He won’t leave us for dead,
not one soul, He’d have perish
for every one that He loves
He does forever cherish.
But, He knows we are fragile,
we can’t make it all alone
so, He sends the Holy Spirit
to help and guide us home.
He waits at the door,
to restore the wandering soul
so we can stand before Him
in faith, complete and whole!

Proverbs 21:16
King James Version (KJV)
“The man that wandereth out of the way of understanding
shall remain in the congregation of the dead.”

I’m seeking God first,
before I do anything else
I will be looking unto Him
not to my wretched self.
I’ll be seeking His kingdom,
for my daily bread
focusing on the destination
of the glory that lies ahead.
I’m seeking in my Bible,
what He has for me today
I’m asking Him to show me
His true and righteous way.
I’m going to discover,
the path that He has for me
I’m going to attempt to try it
with all my physical energy.
I’m going to seek God,
with all my heart and soul
I am going to make Him
my life’s one and only goal.
I’m going to put God first,
before anything else . . .
no one will come between us
not even my old wicked self!

Matthew 6:33

and his righteousness; and all these

A light unto my path,
a perfect day I’ll see
for Jesus is the light beam
shining down on me.
A lamp unto my feet,
His ways I’ll always see
for Jesus is the glow
beaming out of me.
A candle in my darkness,
a flicker of hope you’ll see
for Jesus is the sparkle
twinkling all around me.
A lantern to my soul,
a glimmer for all to see
for Jesus is the shimmer
reflecting out of me.
A torch unto my heart,
a spark that I can see
for Jesus is the flame
burning deep inside of me.

The Word is my road map,
that guides me along my way
leading me with great wisdom
to help me through my day.
When I am at a crossroad,
not sure of the way to go
I ask Jesus for directions
so the true way I will know.
When I find I’m too weary,
to make it down the road
I pray for His endurance
to help me with my load.
When I get off His path,
and I wander on my own
I get down on my knees
till His way for me is shown.
Yes, the Word is our road map,
the perfect guide for each of us
but we must read the scriptures
if in Jesus we’re going to trust!

I’ve not always understood,
the path of pain God took me on
but, I am so very grateful
for it led me straight to His Son.
For, when my heart was troubled,
and my mind was confused
I learn to lean on my Savior
and now the two of us are fused.
When my life delivered me,
so many worldly cares . . .
I found I could release them
onto Jesus with my prayers.
Now the faith I have in my Lord,
cannot ever be shaken
for, He has proven to me . . .
He’d never leave me forsaken!
~~~~~~
Proverbs 3:5-6
King James Version

and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him,
and he shall direct thy paths.”

God knows what you need,
even before you do . . .
He knows the path and the way
that He has prepared for you.
God knows your future,
good things are in His plans
but you must trust and believe
and put your life in His hands.
God knows your troubles,
they are in His thoughts
so give Him your faith today
and let Him connect the dots.
God knows your desires,
He has a purpose and design
they are yours to possess
but to doubt ~ you must resign.
God knows your every need,
they are all in His hand
so there’s no need to worry
He’s got for you a perfect plan!

Lord, show me Your will,
keep me on course
teach me to trust You
as my salvation’s source.
Lead me in Your truth,
guide me all my days
give me Your direction
in all of my ways.
Instruct me to wait,
until Your ready for me
grant me Thy patience
till Your path I see.
Train me to follow,
after Your every deed
offer me Your wisdom
to see my own greed.
Enlighten my soul,
to Your every urge
keep me in Your sight
until our paths merge!

Lord, keep me on Your course,
don’t let me get off the track
keep me looking forward
help me not to look back.
Lord, keep me going straight,
in the right and true direction
keep me seeking for my shelter
in the arms of Your protection.
Lord, keep me walking closely,
on the path You’ve laid for me
keep me searching for only You
until it’s Your light that I see.
Lord, keep me on the narrow,
no matter how small it gets
keep me from falling far away
so I have no life’s regrets.
Lord, keep me moving onward,
until I catch up with You
keep me holding Your hand
on my journey to be with You.

He guides my feet,
over the mountain tops
onto high ground
He lets me rest and stop.
He leads my steps,
into the green vales
where living waters flow
without halt or fail.
He shines His light,
ahead of my footsteps
the Word directs my way
His love it projects.
He takes me to places,
to share the Good News
He sends me on a path
so His truth I can pursue.
One day we’ll be together,
one day ~ we shall meet
until then I pray . . .
He’ll keep directing my feet.
