Simple opening melody based on minor 3rd creates calm mood. Melody expands and blossoms in middle section, then returns to peaceful ending on the words "I will dwell in the house of the Lord, forever". Prayerful, meditative, intimate.

Psalm 23
Lyrics: A Psalm of David, The Holy Bible
Adapted by Peter B. Allen
Composer: Peter B. Allen
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 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 forever,
Forever.
