Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDBBDEFFEBB| Shepherd who with thine amorous sylvan songs | A |
| Hast broken the slumber that encompassed me | B |
| Who mad'st thy crook from the accursed tree | B |
| On which thy powerful arms were stretched so long | C |
| Lead me to mercy's ever flowing fountains | D |
| For thou my shepherd guard and guide shalt be | B |
| I will obey thy voice and wait to see | B |
| Thy feet all beautiful upon the mountains | D |
| Hear Shepherd thou who for thy flock art dying | E |
| Oh wash away these scarlet sins for thou | F |
| Rejoicest at the contrite sinner's vow | F |
| Oh wait to thee my weary soul is crying | E |
| Wait for me Yet why ask it when I see | B |
| With feet nailed to the cross thou'rt waiting still for me | B |
