New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

The Lord is my shepherd
Language: English  after the Hebrew (עברית) 
The Lord is my shepherd: therefore can I lack nothing.
He shall feed me in a green pasture: 
and lead me forth beside the waters of comfort.
He shall convert my soul: and bring me forth 
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 comfort me.
Thou shalt prepare a table for me against them that trouble me: 
thou hast anointed my head with oil, and my cup shall be full.
But thy loving-kindness and mercy shall follow me 
all the days of my life: 
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
