A Psalm of David: Psalm 23
1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death,
I will fear no evil; For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence
of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All
the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD,
Forever.

By whom all things were made.
Call: Who is your God?

Call: What do you believe?
Response: For us and for our salvation He came down from heaven,
Was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary,
And so was made man.
He was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate.
He suffered and was buried.
On the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures.
He then ascended into heaven,
And now sits on the right hand of the Father.
He shall come again, with glory,
to judge both the quick and the dead.
And of His kingdom their shall be no end.
Son of God, illuminate and guide me.
Christ my shield, overshadow me.
† Son of God over me.
Son of God under me.
At
my left and my right.
Christ within me.
Be in the heart of each to whom I speak;
In the mouth of each who speaks to me.
Jesus, Son of God, crucified for me. (x 3)
Christ of God
