Psalms In Poetry - Chapter 23
1 I lack nothing as Yahweh’s my Shepherd!
2 He lets me lie on grass meadows;
To tranquil streams, He leads me by
3 Restoring my spirit that’s low;
In paths of saving justice that
Befit His name, He guides me well.
4 I shall not fear even to walk
In ravines deep and dark as death,
For, You are at my side always;
Your staff and crook are there to soothe;
5 Before the eyes of all my foes,
You set my table well-prepared;
With oil, you anoint my head too;
My cup is full and overflows.
6 Your faithful love and kindness both
Pursue me every day in life;
I make my home in Yahweh’s house
For times to come – eternally!

The Twenty-Third Psalms (Bible Poems for Children)
The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down,
in green pastures.
He leads me beside the
still waters.
He restores my soul,
He leads me in the paths
of rightenous, For his
namesake.
Yea, though I walk through
the valley of the shadow
of death, I will fear no
evil
For you are with me.
Your rod and your staff,
they comfort me,
You prepare a table before
me
in the presence of my
enemies.
You anoint my head with oil,
My cup overflows with
blessings.
Surely goodness and mercy
shall follow mw all the
days of my life,

Psalms in Poetry - Chapter 3
1 How countless stand my foes, O Lord!
How countless those against me, God!
2 How countless are those telling me,
‘His God won’t give him salvation! ’
3 But Yahweh is my shield beside,
My glory, holding my head high!
4 Whenev’r I cry to Yahweh, He
Answers from His holy mountain.
5 After I sleep, I shall wake up,
For Yahweh sustains me always.
6 I don’t fear people in thousands
Who stand against me when I turn.
7 Rescue me Yahweh, my dear God;
You strike my foes across their face;
You break the teeth of wicked ones.
8 In Yahweh, salvation is sure;
Your blessings rain on your people.

Wasila
Of your life for his life,
Of your life for her life,
Of your life for my life,
Of my life for your life,
But this place is used for a latrine;
So come up with a different plan on this issue.
You are in the House of Baal and,
I am in the House of Yahweh;
You are in the House of Beth-El and,
I am still in the House of Yahweh;
So come up with a different plan on this issue.
Wasila, are you of the same mind with me?
Then try to be yourself at all times to learn from others;
Because, Yahweh has shorten the borders of Israyl.
Such is life and we have to learn always,
Such is the muse and we have to keep on moving;
For the tides of life do change at all times.

The Twenty-Third Psalm
My Shepherd is the Lord my God,--
There is no want I know;
His flock He leads in verdant meads,
Where tranquil waters flow.
He doth restore my fainting soul
With His divine caress,
And, when I stray, He points the way
To paths of righteousness.
Yea, though I walk the vale of death,
What evil shall I fear?
Thy staff and rod are mine, O God,
And Thou, my Shepherd, near!
Mine enemies behold the feast
Which my dear Lord hath spread;
And, lo! my cup He filleth up,
With oil anoints my head!
Goodness and mercy shall be mine
Unto my dying day;
Then will I bide at His dear side
Forever and for aye!

He Is Faithful And Just
The Lord up above is faithful and just even when He seems not to be,
In love He is faithful and true in the way He deals with you and me.
For things come into my life that I truly don't understand or desire,
But God is simply purging my life like gold in the crucible's fire.
For we are all like sheep that go astray and left on our own we roam,
So with His love, He gently guides and leads until we're safely home.
We are put on an earthy path that sometimes seems long and winding,
But our future is sure as His Covenant of Love is eternally binding.
When I go through darkened valleys, and His hand I can't readily see,
With His staff and rod, from up above The Good Shepherd comforts me.
And although my heart may seem to quake, God above makes no mistake,
For my God leads me down paths of righteousness for His Name's sake.
So when my world is in turmoil and my foundation seems to be shaken,
I shall not be afraid, for God is my helper and I won't be forsaken.
Where I go and what happens to me on earth, I may not understand,
But I know I have Eternal Life and can't be snatched from God's hand.
All things work for good for all who've been called to His purpose.
And who am I to question my God who is both Sovereign and timeless.
His goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life friend,
And then I will dwell with the Lord forever, as eternity has no end.
To The House Of Yahweh
Great Yahweh! !
Bring me home;
To the very place that i belong to,
Yes, to the House of Yahweh.

Ashaiman
I am in the place of Yahweh!
But, you are now at a place full of evil;
Oh Ashaiman! !
I am the queen's-daughter-in-law;
And, my love is now under the tamarisk tree.
To adopt a stratagem towards my lover,
But, i do know your evil ways! !
And like the sword of Goliath,
However, he who seeks my life also seeks your life.
Come and stay with me and learn the ways of Yahweh! !
For, you will be very safe under my love oh Ashaiman;
However, the wages of sin leads to death.

Be Anxious For Nothing
We are to be anxious for nothing, as our Lord knows our very being,
God who gave us our very breath, guides us in the shadow of death,
He, who has guided us in the past, knows the future that’s been cast,
With God there’s no fear or doubt, what all of our trials, are all about.
Believers need to look to God, who leads His own with staff and rod,
A Loving Shepherd, filled with care, guides us out of all dark despair,
With His rod when we tend to stray, into life’s darkness along the way,
Then He loving guides with His staff, when back onto His well lit path.
A planned course that’s well lit for us, when we employ faith and trust,
In God’s Word and become assured, by not man, but Christ our Lord,
For all in The Lord make no mistake, none of His own, He will forsake,
Even when we choose to roam, our Shepherd will see us safely home.
The Lord Himself will bar no cost, to find that one sheep which is lost,
To bring them safely into the fold, where God’s Word they will behold,
The Light and Truth, not of this world, which only true believers herald,
Giving us internal light and peace, that in any darkness, will not cease.
Even when darkness does draw near, with The Lord, we need not fear,
For God imparts to us His Light, which pierces even the darkest night,
And He who formed us from the earth, has provided to us a new birth,
Through His Eternal Son, Jesus Christ, Who promises us, Eternal Life.

It Was Yahweh's Blessings
It was Yahweh's belssings,
And, i do than Him for everything!!
It came like a struggle without understanding anything!
But today, i do understand why it was so;
Because, Yahweh took me out of these people to make known His Name!!!
And at 'Nii Boi Town' today, we can say: 'Praise Yahweh! HalleluYahweh'!!

I Am For Peace
Yahweh is my light and my salvation,
Who shall i fear? !
I am for peace but when i speak to them,
They are for war! !
The heart of my people had grown hard,
And their ears are dull of hearing;
Yahweh is my witness but,
They are always setting traps for me.
With their eyes closed, how can they see?
The lusts of their own minds have dishonoured their bodies,
Like sheep without a shepherd;
I am for peace but when i speak to them,
They are for war.

Shadow Of Deth
Auxilium meum a Domino
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me beside the still waters
He restoreth my soul
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil; for thou art with me
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies
Thou anoitest my head with oil; my cup runneth over
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever

Yahu
To be served like a monkey and to be saved like money,
With the woes of life around us always;
But he split the wood for the burnt offering of love and,
She took a veil to cover her face.
Yahu, this sacrifice should be eaten inside one house;
For the worst hailstorm is about to come.
To be seerved like a monkey and to be saved like money,
But life is like living 430 years in the land of Egypt;
Where one learns through the slavery days of the muse that there was.
It was in the 'House of God (Beth-El) ' which was,
Very different from the 'House of Yahweh (Bayit Yahweh):
But there we have to learn from the difference to gain wisdom.
'Bayit Yahweh'! For there we got the truth of life to carry on;
And of the sacrifice which was to be eaten inside one house.

Foster
Yahweh is here with us like,
She who lifted her eyes and looked!
Yahweh is love and He is with us like,
He who lifted his eyes and looked!
But slowly at peace should your mind lead you on.
Come and see the daughters of this land,
They are like the beginning of the barley harvest!
But Foster, life is like the woman lying next to you.
Learn and be yourself at all times,
For you need to tell the world who you are too.

Yahweh
Oh Father Yahweh,
Help me to see your presence with your understandings;
And like the sweet love that spreads out for love,
I will always follow your laws of peace and love.
Why is the world like this?
For i am in the wilderness of Zin like,
The sins of my youth without any clue to move on.
The law is to be decided by a lot and,
Of the oracles of the one whose eyes are opened!
For Yahweh is not a man that He should lie.
The mouth of the donkey spoke and Balaam was surprised! !
So why cover your face and hold the gun of terror?
Surely, this thing is known; and surely, this thing is seen;
Because what is done in the dark is now exposed by the light.
Of a consuming fire!
From the Red Sea to the River Euphrates;
For Yahweh will surely provide for those who believe in Him.
I am for peace and those around me are for war,
You are for peace but those around you are for war,
So is this world of peace and hatred!
But, we have to fight on with peace at all times.

Protection
I have no fear at the present in view of my past experiences,
And i am now delivered from the paw of the lion;
But, do wear a bronze helmet on your head to protect yourself.
Of the valley which lies below her,
There you must go to meet her love;
But, i am now delivered from the paw of the bear.
Of the five smooth stones from the brook,
You need a sound protection in this life;
And Yahweh does not save with sword and spear,
For the battle is Yahweh's.

At All Times II
Pure, sure, treasure, measure, cure, pressure, pleasure;
And like one step ahead!
But, use the wisdom of Yahweh at all times.
Head, ahead!
Far, afar!
Long, along!
But, use the wisdom of Yahweh at all times.

Standard Of Perfection
There is only One Who is the standard of perfection,
And that is Yahweh;
For Yahweh rules in the kingdom of men,
And all men are brothers as all women are sisters!
Walk along always with a positive mind,
For many are being deceived by the false prophets around us;
And use what you have to get what you want in this life.
