A song I put together earlier this year for a friend and musician that I grew up with in Peterborough, Ontario. He was our singer in TYRANT and now was going through a heart valve replacement. I thought this would give him some comfort.

Story behind the song
A teen friend of mine underwent a heart valve procedure earlier this year and in a moment, I thought of Psalm 23 and so put together a song around that verse. It gelled very well and now it is out there and you can enjoy it too.
Lyrics
[Verse] In the valley of shadows, I walk alone Haunted by my demons, a heart turned to stone But through the darkness, I hear a voice so clear Guiding my footsteps, casting away my fear [Chorus] Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I fear no evil, for You are with me till my very last breath With rod and staff, You lead me on this treacherous path Your presence comforts, I find solace in Your steadfast (Oh-oh-oh, yeah) (Oh-oh-oh, yeah) [Verse] The world is a cesspool of evil and depravity, Swallowed by the greed of humanity. Stealing and robbing from the poor is a nod, Can we not embrace the word of GOD? [Chorus] Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I fear no evil, for You are with me till my very last breath With rod and staff, You lead me on this treacherous path Your presence comforts, I find solace in Your steadfast (Oh-oh-oh, yeah) (Oh-oh-oh, yeah) [Solo] [Verse] As I pass from this life into the next one, Will my memories of who I knew follow me there? Is the past so important after I'm gone? Will my friends morn me , or even care? [Chorus] Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I fear no evil, for You are with me till my very last breath With rod and staff, You lead me on this treacherous path Your presence comforts, I find solace in Your steadfast (Oh-oh-oh, yeah) (Oh-oh-oh, yeah) --- --- [End]
