The Lord is my Shepherd

Here are the circumstances surrounding this song.  This past Friday I found out that my job will not become permanent.  I have also struggled with feeling somewhat junky lately physically (my symptoms do not seem serious, but they are bothersome and annoying), and have realized that, though I am a Christian, there is a part of me that still fears death, or at least dying younger than seems nice.  However, Christ and His blood have bought me, He is the mighty healer and is faithful to save, faith in Him and His spirit within assure me of eternal life, and I know that He will take care of me and be my faithful shepherd with employment and financially, just as he has in the past.  Here are the lyrics:

Through valleys, oer mountains He's led me
and He's never left me alone
When the future seems dark or uncertain
I need not fear the unknown

CHORUS
3x The Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want
The Lord is my healer, He will deliver, He'll lead me to pasture
and I shall not want.

Through many mistakes I have stumbled
But His grace and His love lift me up
Now I'm learning to trust and believe in my King
'Cuz His love has always been enough

CHORUS

Bridge
Thank you for this path you have led me upon
For I'm learning Your ways, I'm learning Your ways.
I'm seeing You more and I'm getting to know Your Beautiful Glorious face
Though fears may assail I am safe 'neath the veil of Your love
And when this life is done I know You'll bring me home up above.

2x
You are my Shepherd!  You are my Shepherd!  Yes, You are my Shepherd!
and I shall not want.
You are my healer, and You will me, deliver.  You'll lead me to pasture,
and I shall not want.
