KING OF KINGS
O King of Kings whose reign of old
Hath been from everlasting.
Before whose throne,
With crowns of gold,
Thy white-robed saints are standing.
Whilst all the shining courts on high
With angels' voices are ringing;
Oh let Thy children venture nigh
Their lowly homage bringing.
—Thomas Seeds.
THE 23RD PSALM
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 path 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.
