- The Lord is my Shepherd (That’s Relationship!)
- I shall not want (That’s Supply!)
- He maketh me to lie down in green pastures (That’s Rest!)
- He leadeth me beside the still waters (That’s Refreshment!)
- He restoreth my soul (That’s Healing!)
- He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness (That’s Guidance!)
- For His name’s sake (That’s Purpose!)
- Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death (That’s Testing!)
- I will fear no evil (That’s Protection!)
- For Thou art with me (That’s Faithfulness!)
- Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me (That’s Discipline!)
- Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies (That’s Hope!)
- Thou annointest my head with oil (That’s Consecration!)
- My cup runneth over (That’s Abundance!)
- Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life (That’s Blessing!)
- And I will dwell in the house of the Lord (That’s Security!)
- Forever (That’s Eternity!)
