Classic Poem

When He went out from Jordan
To walk in Galilee,
He went with those who loved him,
The Twelve, and then the Three.

When He was in the Garden
Before the cup was done,
He found the Three were sleeping
And called aside the One.

And when 'twas almost finished,
Down from the bloody Tree
He found the One beside him
And His heart leapt to see

The One, the more than brother,
Who on His heart had lain,—
Knew only that he loved Him,
And felt no more His pain.
