When the chief shepherd appears.
You will receive the unfading crown of glory.
Relieving so many of our fears.
As we live out our story.

Pope Francis is ill .
And I am praying.
That he will go on remaining with us still.
Praying is hoping, is believing.

This unbroken apostolic succession.
For two thousand years.
Is not in question.
Wiping away unbelieving tears.

Onwards from St Peter.
We will not falter.

…….
Love the Chief Shepherd
Win the unfailing glory
That is our belief
