Our Morning Offering – 11 March – Monday of the First Week of Lent

Lord Jesus, Think on Me
Bishop Synesius of Cyrene (373-430)
Bishop of Ptolemais

Lord Jesus, think on me,
and purge away my sins,
from earth-born passions set me free,
and make me pure within.

Lord Jesus, think on me,
with care and woe 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.
