Lyrics
Verse 1
Shadow falls behind me
Still I walk fearless and free
Valleys hush under my feet
Anointed oil flows deep
Nkosi yam, I am carried
Greenest pastures
Lead my soul, you never leave
Quiet waters, peace returns to me
Chorus
The Lord my shepherd, I want nothing more
Goodness and mercy find me
Every day, every dawn
Your rod, your comfort
Nkosi yam, you hold me close
Forever you guide me home
Forever you guide me home
Post-Chorus
Yelemah, Nkosi yam
Yelemah, Nkosi yam
Verse 2
Sure hands lift my sorrow
Hope grows inside me anew
Broken chains, blessings borrowed
Your light cuts through
Nkosi yam
No fear shadows my way
Banquet prepared, enemies watch, I rise
Grace sings over the cries
Chorus
The Lord my shepherd, I want nothing more
Goodness and mercy find me
Every day, every dawn
Your rod, your comfort
Nkosi yam, you hold me close
Forever you guide me home
Forever you guide me home
Post-Chorus
Yelemah, Nkosi yam
Yelemah, Nkosi yam
Bridge
Even when darkness tries
Even when tears still fall
Even when my voice shakes
Even when I stand small
You bring me peace (bring me peace)
You bring me peace (bring me peace)
Chorus
The Lord my shepherd, I want nothing more
Goodness and mercy find me
Every day, every dawn
Your rod, your comfort
Nkosi yam, you hold me close
Forever you guide me home
Forever you guide me home
Post-Chorus
Yelemah, Nkosi yam
Yelemah, Nkosi yam
