(\'The Lord\'s my Shepherd\')

1 Peter 2 v.21-25

********

Christ suffered for us, example

He did leave unto all

That we in His steps should follow

He did no sin, we know

 

When He was reviled, he did not

Revile, give equal lot

When He suffered, no threatenings

Made He, but in all things

 

In all He did Himself commit

To His Father, each whit

God, who does judgement righteously

With truth and equity

 

Christ in His own body did bare

Our sins on the cross there

That we, being dead to sins should

Live righteous as God would* (*wills)

 

By Christ\'s wounds we are healed, for we

As sheep astray were, see

But now are returned to God, He

Shepherd of your souls be
