Am I a stone and not a sheep | |||
That I can stand, O Christ, beneath Thy Cross, | |||
To number drop by drop Thy Blood's slow loss, | |||
And yet not weep? | |||
Not so those women loved | |||
Who with exceeding grief lamented Thee; | |||
Not so fallen Peter weeping bitterly; | |||
Not so the thief was moved; | |||
Not so the Sun and Moon | |||
Which hid their faces in a starless sky, | |||
A horror of great darkness at broad noon— | |||
I, only I. | |||
Yet give not o'er, | |||
But seek Thy sheep, true Shepherd of the flock; | |||
Greater than Moses, turn and look once more | |||
And smite a rock. | |||

{{Text|English| Am I a stone and not a sheep That I can stand, O Christ, beneath Thy Cross, To number drop by drop Thy Blood's slow loss, And yet not weep?
Not so those women loved Who with exceeding grief lamented Thee; Not so fallen Peter weeping bitterly; Not so the thief was moved;
Not so the Sun and Moon Which hid their faces in a starless sky, A horror of great darkness at broad noon— I, only I.
Yet give not o'er, But seek Thy sheep, true Shepherd of the flock; Greater than Moses, turn and look once more And smite a rock.
