Do you love me, Peter?
Feed my lambs.
do you love me, Peter?
Lead my sheep.
Do you love me, Peter?
Feed my sheep.

He lifted up his hands and the nail holes showed clear,
the scars on his forehead from the scorn of thorns,
and he blessed the denial and dread in Peter,
and will bless ours too.

We need never fear the judgment of Christ,
He gave his all,
We need never fear our own sins,
We are worth his life.
——
As we stand in the shadow of the cross,
where love chose goodness,
we are reconciled, forgiven and free to become
beloved.
