John “Calvin” Braud
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in the path of righteousness for his name sake. Yea, though I walk through the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff will comfort me. (Psalm 23: 1-4)
