Psalm 23KJV
A Psalm of David.
1The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Each church adds its own songs under its CCLI licence, and a public-domain hymnal is included. The app does not handle giving or any payments.
Two privacy promises
Your pastor cannot see your reading.
Your reading history, streaks, highlights, notes and plan progress are kept separate from everything your church can access. The database enforces this, and automated tests check it.
When you pray for someone, it stays anonymous.
Your phone creates a random code and sends only a scrambled version of it (a SHA-256 hash). The server can count prayers, but it never records who prayed. Tap the button to try it.
