Lord Jesus, think on me
-Who will rescue me from this body of death, thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord" Rom. 7:2:-25
Lord Jesus, think on me,
And purge away my sin;
From earthborn passions set me free,
And make me pure within.
Lord Jesus, think on me,
With care and woe opprest;
Let me thy loving servant be,
And test thy promised rest.
Lord Jesus, think on me,
Amid the Battle's strife;
In all my pain and misery
Be thou my health and life.
Lord Jesus, think on me,
Nor let me go astray;
Through darkness and perplexity
Point thou the heavenly way.
Lord Jesus, think on me,
When flows the tempest high;
When on doth rush the enemy,
O saviour, be thou nigh.
Lord Jesus, think on me,
That, when the floot is past,
I may the eternal brightness see.
And share the joy at last.
SYNESIUS OF CYRENE, 375-430; tr. By ALLEN WILLIAM CHATFIELD, 1808-96
