I Fear No Evil

I Fear No Evil

In dawn’s early light
Out my window
My big fat yellow cat
Sat on the old wooden fence
Watching everything in view
Above him the hawk
Viewed more than he
What the world fears today
Is what it cannot see
That which lies in our path
Left by someone passing by
So do I join in fear
Or seek faith eternal
Even though
I walk through
The sunless valley
Of the shadow of death
I fear no evil
For You are with me
Your rod to protect me
Your staff to guide me
They comfort
And console me
