Just Another Melodic Monday - Psalm 23

This song is simply the words of Psalm 23 set to music.  The arrangement is written by Adam Wright under the moniker of "The Corner Room", and he has produced several albums where the songs are all Scripture passages set to music.  Although they aren't necessarily suitable for congregational singing, they can still be helpful as part of personal devotions.
