Tune: St Fulbert
(\'Ye choirs of new Jerusalem\')
John 21 v.15-19
*******
A time for Peter, three times he
Did deny Jesus, see
But now by shore of Galilee
He would there restored be
Jesus asked him three times, did say
Do you love me today?
Peter replied, Yes, Lord, you know
That I do love you so
Peter, my lambs and my sheep feed
Unto flock take good heed
I prophesy now unto you
What shall for you come true
When you were young, you did go where
You would, went here and there
But when you are old, you shall be
Bound by others, not free
And they shall take you where you would
Not go, for if you could
You may escape, though signifies
Jesus how Peter dies
It would be unto God\'s glory
He would follow Him, see
Unto death, having a hope fine
Resurrection divine
