Contemporary Christian singer-songwriter and Vineyard Church worship leader Jeremy Riddle has released his new single, The Lord is My Shepherd, on iTunes and to Christian AC radio. Best known for his 2007 breakthrough single Sweetly Broken, Riddle sounds strong and secure on his new single, which is obviously based on Psalm 23. While mainstream CCM success seems to have eluded him so far in the form of an actual Top 10 hit, The Lord is My Shepherd may be his best bet for stardom in the Contemporary Christian industry. The Lord is My Shepherd is one of the top 10 songs with the greatest increase in spins over the past week on Christian AC radio. I personally like it, and think a Top 25 finish is not out of the question (assuming his distributor can get into the hands of more Christian AC programmers). What do you think?
The Lord is My Shepherd Lyrics
Jeremy Riddle
Let the pain in my life
Find its healing in Your eyes
Every hurt, every loss
Pull me closer to Your heart
Let the wind and the waves
Bring anew, courage and faith
I’m singing out, singing out…
The Lord is my Shepherd and I want for nothing
You lead me to water for You know I’m thirsting
And I, am only satisfied by You
Every day, I make a choice
To be led, only by Your voice
To be bold and unafraid
Knowing I am covered, I am safe
For even now, in my need
You are proving yet again to me
You are there
You are there
Always there
The Lord is my Shepherd and I want for nothing
You lead me to water for You know I’m thirsting
And I, am only satisfied by You
