::::''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 many a care oppressed; :Let me Thy loving servant be :And taste Thy promised rest. ::::''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 Thou the heavenly way. ::::''5.'' :Lord Jesus, think on me :When floods the tempest high; :When on doth rush the enemy, :O Savior, be Thou nigh! ::::''6.'' :Lord Jesus, think on me :That, when the flood is past, :I may th’eternal brightness see :And share Thy joy at last. ::::''7.'' :Lord Jesus, think on me :That I may sing above :To Father, Spirit, and to Thee :The strains of praise and love.
