Allen's setting of Psalm 23 is something altogether out of the ordinary: a solemn Gospel march. It is a forceful utterance by a man at arms in a threatening situation. The song takes its listener on a journey, crossing from darkness and dread into the affirmative light of God-bestowed safety and protection.

Psalm 23

Words from Psalms
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me by 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, Thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest me a table in the presence of my foes:
Thou anointest mine head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
