Text: | Lord Jesus, Think on Me |
Tune: | SOUTHWELL |
Arranger: | Martin Shaw |
1 Lord Jesus, think on me,
And purge away my sin;
From earth-born passions set me free,
And make me pure within.
2 Lord Jesus, think on me,
Amid the battle's strife;
In all my pain and misery
Be Thou my health and life.
3 Lord Jesus, think on me,
Nor let me go astray;
Through darkness and perplexity
Point Thou the heavenly way.
4 Lord Jesus, think on me,
That, when this life is past,
I may th' eternal brightness see,
And share Thy joy at last.
