Katharine Tynan Hinkson. b. 1861877. Sheep and Lambs
| ALL in the April morning, | |
| April airs were abroad; | |
| The sheep with their little lambs | |
| Pass’d me by on the road. | |
| The sheep with their little lambs | 5 |
| Pass’d me by on the road; | |
| All in an April evening | |
| I thought on the Lamb of God. | |
| The lambs were weary, and crying | |
| With a weak human cry, | 10 |
| I thought on the Lamb of God | |
| Going meekly to die. | |
| Up in the blue, blue mountains | |
| Dewy pastures are sweet: | |
| Rest for the little bodies, | 15 |
| Rest for the little feet. | |
| Rest for the Lamb of God | |
| Up on the hill-top green, | |
| Only a cross of shame | |
| Two stark crosses between. | 20 |
| All in the April evening, | |
| April airs were abroad; | |
| I saw the sheep with their lambs, | |
| And thought on the Lamb of God. |
