Do You Really Love Me (Jesus said to Peter)

This is a children's song, based on John 21:17.

It was written by American musician, songwriter and at-the-time Roman Catholic priest Carey Landry (b 1944).  The song was included in the "Hi God" songbook volume I, which was released in 1973.   This book is still available from OCP (link below), and their page includes a soundtrack to listen to the song.

The song was also included some other books published in the 1970s/80s, including the 20th Century Folk Hymnal Volume 4 (UK / Ireland).

Do you really love me?
Jesus said to Peter.
Do you really love me?
Jesus said again.
Yes I really love you,
Peter said to with joy.
Than feed my sheep He said,
Peter feed my sheep.
