A Table

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
Psalm 23:5

Thou preparest a table for me
Before my enemies on every side
Thou dost make my heart unafraid and fresh,
Thou anointest my head
With Thine own spirit's joyful oil,
And Thou dost fill my soul
With Thy spiritual gladness

Wolfgang Meuslin 18th Century, from Bach Cantata BWV 112
