The Good Shepherd Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBC DEEDBB

SHEPHERD who with thine amorous sylvan songA
Hast broken the slumber that encompassed meB
Who mad'st Thy crook from the accursed treeB
On which Thy powerful arms were stretched so longA
Lead me to mercy's ever flowing fountainsC
For Thou my shepherd guard and guide shalt beB
I will obey Thy voice and wait to seeB
Thy feet all beautiful upon the mountainsC
-
Hear Shepherd Thou who for Thy flock art dyingD
Oh wash away these scarlet sins for ThouE
Rejoicest at the contrite sinner's vowE
Oh wait to Thee my weary soul is cryingD
Wait for me Yet why ask it when I seeB
With feet nailed to the cross Thou'rt waiting still for meB
