good mercy...

held by
love unconditional
through pain and horrors untold
the steady hand still
keeps me
through the shadowy
valley of death
fear does not take me
for you are holding me
though I fall
you will catch me
your staff
guides me
next to your chest
i am comforted
you feed me
when i am hungry
the banquet of a king
before those who hate me
serenity and peace is
your nature
in your gentleness my soul
rests
you renew me
though pain immeasurable
terror untold abounds
i will rest under the
arms of the shepherd
surely your goodness
is your mercy
always with me
your love forever
my dwelling place
truly my cup runs over
