PSALM 23
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 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. Su~ely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We, the family of Lizzie Ware Brown, wish to convey our deepest appreciation and gratitude for your kind submission of thoughtfulness during the illness and passing of our loved one. May God bless each of you.
