Hagan, Geor^a
The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down
In green pastures,
He leadeth me heside the still waters,
He restored! my soul;
He leadeth me
In the paths of righteousness
For His names sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley
Of the shadows 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
For ever.
Miss me a little- but not too long
and not with your head bowed low.
Remember the Love
that we once shared;
Miss me- but let me go.
For tills is a journey
that we all must take,
and each must go alone.
Its all a part of the Master plan,
a step on the road to home.
Miss me- but let me go.
