Does thou know who made thee,
Gave thee life, and bid thee feed
By the stream and o’er the mead;
Gave thee clothing of delight,
Softest clothing, woolly, bright;
Gave thee such a tender voice,
Making all the vales rejoice?
Little lamb, who made thee?
Does thou know who made thee?
Little lamb, I’ll tell thee;
Little lamb, I’ll tell thee:
He is called by thy name,
For He calls Himself a Lamb.
He is meek, and He is mild,
He became a little child.
I a child, and thou a lamb,
We are called by His name.
Little lamb, God bless thee!
Little lamb, God bless thee!from "Songs of Innocence: The Lamb" - William Blake
The Lord is my shepherd; how can I lack anything?
He gives me a resting-place where there is pasture,
and leads me out by cool waters,
to make me live a new.
As in honour pledged, by sure paths he leads me;
what though I walk with the shadow of death all around me?
Hurt I fear none, while thou art with me;
thy rod, thy crook are my comfort.
What though my enemies trouble me?
Full in their view thou does spread a banquet before me;
richly thou dost anoint my head with oil,
generous the cup that steals away my senses!
All my life thy goodnesss pursues me;
through the long years,
the Lord's house shall be my dwelling-place.
Psalm:23 - Knox's translation
