BIBLE VERSE MEMORIZATION
(Bold type represents versus children are working on)

 The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want

He makes me lie down in green pastures,

He leads me beside quiet waters,

He restores my soul.

He guides in paths of righteousness for his namesake.

 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil for you are with me.  Your staff and rod they comfort me.

 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.  You anoint my head with oil, my cup overflows.

 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

23rd Psalm
