The Lord God is worthy to be praised Strong and mighty for all of my days Lifted high above the earth He died so we could see what we're worth Jesus friend of sinners the lost and the shamed Jesus healer of our ills breaker of our chains Saved us by his mighty hand But we are sinking rapidly in shifting sand Full of compassion and rich is his love His kindness endures and mercy rains from above When we are lost and confused he carries us back In the pasture of the Lord there is nothing that we lack Green are the fields upon which we rest The pure spring water is simply the best The sun rises and bathes us with light We are precious in his sight He guides us through the valleys by his staff and rod In the darkness we will not fear for the shepherd is our God
