Psalm 23
A psalm of David
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of
death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they com fort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

God sent a beautiful angel and Diamond was her name.
She touch so many hearts and we will never be the same.
She was in our lives ju s t a little while. Oh we'll never forget th a t beautiful smile...
God sent her here fo r His purpose and reaeon
We thank God for you even though a short season
Satan thought he had you and he had won
But God said come unto me my little one
So you went to sleep, my darling angel girl
And you left this old mean and sinful world. Love, Daddy
