Psalm 23 (I Am Not Alone)

Theology & Meaning

A fresh, congregationally accessible setting of Psalm 23 that weaves the ancient text with New Testament fulfillment in the Good Shepherd. Kimbrough's liturgical songwriting tradition emphasizes deep theological fidelity to Scripture with melodic accessibility for modern congregations.

Worship Leadership Tips

Suitable for virtually any service context—funerals, pastoral care, commissioning, or general worship. The Psalm 23 text carries enormous pastoral weight. Singing it slowly and deliberately allows the congregation to hear familiar words with fresh ears.

Arrangement Tips

Piano or acoustic guitar only; deliberately simple. Pads can add warmth. The arrangement should serve the text—never overpower it. Works beautifully a cappella in verse-chorus or responsorial settings. Consider having the congregation read the psalm before singing it.
