Lord Jesus, Think on Me
SOUTHWELL S.M.
MEDITATION AND PRAYER
Lord Jesus, think on me,
And purge away my sin;
From earth-born passions set me free,
And make me pure within.
Lord Jesus, think on me,
With care and woe oppresed;
Let me Thy loving servant be,
And taste Thy promised rest.
Lord Jesus, think on me,
Nor let me go astray;
Through darkness and perplexity
Point Thou the heavenly way.
Lord Jesus, think on me,
That I may sing above
To Father, Spirit and to Thee,
The strains of praise and love.
