Yea, though I walk in 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
(Psalm 23:4; KJV).
1. Brought to a standstill.
Forced to rest:
The Lord will help you
Through this test.
2. Sharing all your pain
And fear:
His Son is with you,
Ever near.
3. He knows your weakness;
Hears your cries:
His Spirit prays for you
With sighs.
4. Protecting you
Beneath his wing:
Our God bears all
Your suffering.
