John 21:15–17: Feed My lambs....Feed My sheep

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)

Religion

Help me, Lord, to feed and keep
First the lambs, and then the sheep.
Lambs to make my tenderest care,
Lambs within my arms to bear:
Both my happy charge I make,
Both I cherish for Thy sake,
Thus in life, and death to prove,
Loved of Thee, that Thee I love.
