All in the April morning,April airs were abroad,The sheep with their little lambsPass’d me by on the road.The sheep with their little lambsPass’d me by on the road;All in an April eveningI thought on the Lamb of God.The lambs were weary and cryingWith a weak human cry,I thought on the Lamb of GodGoing meekly to die.Up in the blue, blue mountainsDewy pastures are sweet:Rest for the little bodies,Rest for the little feet.Rest for the Lamb of GodUp on the hill-top green,Only a cross of shameTwo stark crosses between.All in the April evening,April airs were abroad;I saw the sheep with their lambs,And thought on the Lamb of God.

The lambs were weary and crying

With a weak human cry,

I thought on the Lamb of God

Going meekly to die.

Up in the blue, blue mountainsDewy pastures are sweet:Rest for the little bodies,Rest for the little feet.

Dewy pastures are sweet:

Rest for the little bodies,

Rest for the little feet.

Rest for the Lamb of GodUp on the hill-top green,Only a cross of shameTwo stark crosses between.

Rest for the Lamb of God

Up on the hill-top green,

Only a cross of shame

Two stark crosses between.

All in the April evening,

April airs were abroad;

I saw the sheep with their lambs,

And thought on the Lamb of God.
