MESSAGE TO PETER

Hazel Harper Brandner

If we, like Peter, have denied the ChristAnd in some garden failed in keeping calmWhen self-assertion was not sacrificed,Let us remember as a soothing balmThat Jesus healed the servant's ear and sent,When he had newly risen from the tomb,A special message which no doubt was meantTo comfort sorrowing Peter in his gloom.
