Lord Jesus, Think on Me

Synesius of Cyrene, Bishop of Ptolemais • Allen William Chatfield • English

Primary Scripture: Genesis 9:17

Verse 1

Lord Jesus, think on me, And purge away my sin, From worldly passions set me free, And make me pure within. Lord Jesus, think on me, With care and woe oppressed; Let me your loving servant be, And taste your promised rest.

Verse 2

Lord Jesus, think on me, Amid the battle's strife; In all my pain and misery, Please be my health and life. Lord Jesus, think on me, Nor let me go astray; Thru' darkness and perplexity, Point to the heav'nly way.

Verse 3

Lord Jesus, think on me, And grant me this desire, That I, with mind and limbs set free May join the heav'nly choir. Lord Jesus, think on me, That when the flood is past, I may th'eternal brightness see And share your joy at last.
