A Soldier’s Prayer of trust in God.
You Lord, are my shepherd.
I will never be in need.
You let me rest in fields of green grass.
You lead me to streams of peaceful water,
and you refresh my life.
You are true to your name,
and you lead me along the right paths.
I may walk through valleys
as dark as death,
but I won’t be afraid.
You are with me,
and your shepherd’s rod
makes me feel safe.
You treat me to a feast,
while my enemies watch.
You honour me as your guest,
and you fill my cup until it overflows.
Your kindness and love
will always be with me
each day of my life,
and I will live forever
in your house, Lord.
(Drawn from Psalm 23)
