Tune: | DAMON |
1 Lord Jesus, think on me
and purge away my sin;
from earthborn passions set me free
and make me pure within.
2 Lord Jesus, think on me,
with care and woe oppressed;
let me thy loving servant be
and gain thy promised rest.
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 the flood is past,
I may th'eternal brightness see
and share thy joy at last.
