All in the April morning,
April airs were abroad;
______ sheep with their little lambs
Pass'd me by on ______ road.
The sheep with their little lambs
Pass'd me ______ on the road;
All in an April evening
I ______ on the Lamb of God.
The lambs were weary, ______ crying
With a weak human cry;
I thought on ______ Lamb of God
Going meekly to die.
Up in ______ blue, blue mountains
Dewy pastures are sweet:
Rest for ______ little bodies,
Rest for the little feet.
Rest for ______ Lamb of God
Up on the hill-top green;
Only ______ cross of shame
Two stark crosses between.
All in ______ April evening,
April airs were abroad;
I saw the ______ with their lambs,
And thought on the Lamb of God.
