Author: Allen William Chatfield, 1808 - 96; Synesius of Cyrene, cir. 375 - 430 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #365a (1958) Lyrics: 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,
With care and woe opprest;
Let me thy loving servant be
And taste thy promised rest. A-men.
3 Lord Jesus, think on me,
Amid the battle's strife;
In all my pain and misery
Be thou my health and life.
4 Lord Jesus, think on me,
Nor let me go astray;
Through darkness and perplexity
Point out the heavenly way.
5 Lord Jesus, think on me,
That, when the flood is past,
I may the eternal brightness see,
And share thy joy at last.
6 Lord Jesus, think on me,
That I may sing above
To Father, Spirit, and to thee,
The strains of praise and love.
Amen.
