THE LORD’S MY SHEPHERD
The Lord’s my shepherd, I’ll not want;He makes me down to lie
in pastures green; he leadeth methe quiet waters by.
My soul he doth restore again,and me to walk doth make
within the paths of righteousness,ev’n for his own name’s sake.
Yea though I walk in death’s dark vale,yet will I fear no ill;
for thou art with me; and thy rodand staff me comfort still.
My table thou has furnishedin presence of my foes;
my head thou dost with oil anoint,and my cup overflows.
Goodness and mercy all my lifeshall surely follow me:
and in God’s house for evermoremy dwelling place shall be.

HYMN Praise My Soul
THE LORD’S PRAYEROur Father, which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy Name.Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive them that trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation:But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,The power and the glory.
For ever and ever Amen.
WORDS OF FAREWELL
PRAISE MY SOUL
Praise, my soul, the King of Heaven;To his feet thy tribute bring;
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,Who like me His praise should sing?
Praise him! Praise him! Praise him! Praise him!
Praise the everlasting King.
Frail as summer’s flower we flourish,Blows the wind and it is gone;
But while mortals rise and perish,God endures unchanging on.
Praise him! Praise him! Praise him! Praise him!
Praise the high eternal one!
Angels, help us to adore Him;Ye behold Him face to face;
Sun and moon, bow down before Him;Dwellers all in time and space.
Praise him! Praise him! Praise him! Praise him!
Praise with us the God of grace.
