SHEPHERD of the sheep, High Priest of things to come, Who didst in grace Thy servant keep, And take him sweetly home;

Accept our song of praise For all his holy care,[ of days, His zeal unquenched, through length The trials that he bare.

His heart was Thine alone,

From selfish longings free;[ throne, Thy throne the Cross, a cross his His life was hid in Thee. Chief of Thy faithful band,

He held himself the least;[ hand, Though Thy dread keys were in his O everlasting Priest.

So, trusting in Thy might, He won a fair renown; So, waxing valiant in the fight, He trod the lion down.

Then rendered up to Thee

The charge Thy love had given, And passed away Thy Face to see Revealed in highest heaven. On all our Bishops pour The Spirit of Thy grace; That as he won the palm of yore, So they may run their race;

▬▬▬▬

That, when this life is done, They may with him adore The ever Blessèd THREE in ONE In bliss for evermore. Amen.
