Lyrics
Auxilium meum a Domino
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 anoitest 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
