John 10: 27
How the Good Shepherd -
Prepared to lay down His life -
Rejoiced to describe them,
"My sheep hear my voice".
John 20: 17
And as a risen Man
What it meant to Him
To use a fresh designation,
"Go to my brethren".
John 13: 1
But they clearly had had
This inkling: that amid hostility
Those whose feet He washed were
"His own who were in the world".
