                            O Sing the great Apostle

                            In mem’ry of the Rock

                            The basis of that fabric

                            Which fears not tempest’s shock

                           

    To our Creator’s glory

                            That festal chant shall burst

                            We praise the second shepherd

                            To glorify the first

 

1)    O Peter, light of doctrine and torch of holy love,

       The very types of fervour and wisdom from above.

       O   Sing…..

2)    Type too of sad transgression the fruit of faithless fears,

       And from the lapse uprisen of penitential tears.

                                                       O  Sing…..

3)    Thou from the Cross didst follow thy Master to the Skies

       And O be thou our leader that we too there may be.

                                                       O  Sing…..

4)    By our good shepherd’s merits and by his saving pray’s

       Thy trespass - laden people Eternal Shepherd spare.

                                                       O  Sing…..
