Tune: | SOUTHWELL |
1 O Jesus, think on me
and purge away my sin;
from selfish passions set me free,
and make me pure within.
2 O Jesus, think on me,
by anxious thoughts oppressed;
let me your loving servant be
and taste your promised rest.
3 O Jesus, think on me,
nor let me go astray;
through darkness and perplexity
point out your chosen way.
4 O Jesus, think on me,
that when the flood is past,
I may the eternal brightness see
and share your joy at last.
