VIGIL OF ST. PETER.
O Jesu, gone so far apart
Only my heart can follow Thee,
That look which pierced St. Peter's heart
Turn now on me.
Only my heart can follow Thee,
That look which pierced St. Peter's heart
Turn now on me.
Thou Who dost search me thro' and thro'
And mark the crooked ways I went,
Look on me, Lord, and make me too
Thy penitent.
And mark the crooked ways I went,
Look on me, Lord, and make me too
Thy penitent.
