Tune: St Andrew
(\'Jesus calls us o\'er the tumult\')
John 1 v.35-41
For St Andrews Day: November 30.
********
Andrew and Simon Peter, two
Of John\'s [Baptist] disciples were true
John saw Jesus and said, Behold
The Lamb of God! it be told
They two then did Jesus follow
Jesus turned around, did know
They were there, and said, What seek ye?
In His sight He did them view
They said, Rabbi, where do you dwell?
Will you unto you now tell?
Jesus said, Come and see, and they
Did stay at His place that day
Andrew unto Jesus he brought
His brother Peter, him sought
Said, We have the Messiah found
The Christ, hear the joyful sound
Jesus said to Peter, You shall
Be called Cephas, know it well
A stone, having sure foundation
Preaching unto the nation
