Title: A Beautiful Hymn Post by: AutumnRose on March 09, 2010, 07:06:30 AM ...which I discovered listening to a religious programme on BBC Radio 2 on Sunday.
Lord Jesus, Think on Me (click the link for Youtube video :) ) 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 many a care oppressed; Let me Thy loving servant be And taste 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 floods the tempest high; When on doth rush the enemy, O Savior, be Thou nigh! Lord Jesus, think on me That, when the flood is past, I may th’eternal brightness see And share Thy joy at last. Synesius of Cyrene, circa 430 [Moderator Edit: New Link Policy] Title: Re: A Beautiful Hymn Post by: Patricia on March 09, 2010, 09:22:26 AM Very nice. :)

Lord Jesus, think on me When floods the tempest high; When on doth rush the enemy, O Savior, be Thou nigh! It makes me think of Christ asleep in the boat! |
