Peter outwornA
And menaced by the swordB
Shook off the dust of RomeC
And as he fledD
Met one with eager faceE
Hastening citywardD
And to his vast amazeF
It was The LordD
Lord whither goest ThouG
He cried importunateD
And Christ repliedD
Peter I suffer lossH
I go to take thy placeE
To bear thy crossH
-
Then Peter bowed his headD
DiscomfortedD
There at the Master's feetD
Found grace completeD
And courage and new faithI
And turned with HimJ
To DeathK
-
So weL
Whene'er we failM
Of our full dutyL
Cast on Him our loadD
Who suffered sore for usN
Who frail flesh wore for usN
Who all things bore for usN
On Christ The LordD
