The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Will You be my light, when I cannot see?
And when I can't take another step
Lord, would You carry me?
And when I've lost my fight, will You be my strength?
Will You set me a table in the presence of my enemies?
I shall not want, I shall not want
Oh, my soul's got a shepherd in the valley and I shall not want
I shall not want, I shall not want
'Cause my cup's running over, running over and I shall not want
And I will lift my eyes to where my help comes from
And I won't be afraid of the shadow
'Cause I've seen the Sun
No, I will not stop, when the way gets hard
'Cause the green only grows in the valley
And that's where You are (say)
I shall not want (no, no), I shall not want (hey)
Oh, my soul's got a shepherd in the valley and I shall not want
I shall not want, I shall not want
('Cause my cup's running over)
'Cause my cup's running over, running over and I shall not want
I've got everything that I need
Your goodness and Your mercy
I've got everything that I need
Your goodness and Your mercy
I've got everything that I need
Your goodness and Your mercy
I've got goodness and I've got mercy
Hallelu, glory hallelujah (hey)
I've got goodness (somebody say) and I've got mercy
(Hallelu) halleu, (glory) glory hallelujah
(Say again, I got goodness)
I've got goodness and I've got mercy
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah
(Say, The Good Shepherd)
The Good Shepherd leads me to the waters
Hallelu, glory hallelujah
And He anoints me (hallelujah), anoints me with His oil
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah
(Now my cup is) now my cup is
(Cup is running over) my cup is running over
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah
I won't fear no (fear), fear no evil
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah
(I will dwell) I will dwell in His house forever
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah (I got a song to sing, say)
Hallelujah (I got a song to sing), hallelujah
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah
And when this life is over, I'm gonna live again
Gonna trade this cross for a crown
No, this is not the end
And when You call my name, I will take my rest
There's a mansion in glory and You're gonna meet me there
I shall not want, I shall not want
He will wipe every tear from my eyes
I shall not want
I shall not want, He's on my side, I shall not want
I'll be home in His presence forever
I shall not want
For the Lord is my shepherd in a valley
For the Lord is my shepherd when I'm lacking
For the Lord is my shepherd and I shall not want
I've got everything that I need
Your goodness and Your mercy is following me
Got everything that I need
Your goodness and Your mercy is following me
Got everything that I need (yeah, yeah)
Your goodness and Your mercy is following me
Got everything that I need
Your goodness and Your mercy is following me
Got everything that I need
Your goodness and Your mercy is following me
I've got goodness and I've got mercy (say y'all)
Hallelu, glory hallelujah
(If don't have anything else, you got your goodness)
I've got goodness and I've got mercy
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah
(I thought I lost everything)
But I've got goodness and I've got mercy
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah
I've got goodness and I've got mercy
(Hallelu) hallelu, glory hallelujah
