LITURGY OF THE WORD

RESPONSORIAL PSALM: 23:1-3a, 3b-4, 5, 6

The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall not want.

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. In verdant pastures he gives me repose;

beside restful waters he leads me; he refreshes my soul.

R.

He guides me in right paths for his name's sake.

Even though I walk in the dark valley I fear no evil; for you are at my side

With your rod and your staff that give me courage.

R.

You spread the table before me in the sight of my foes;

you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

R.

Only goodness and kindness follow me all the days of my life;

and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for years to come.

R.
