V. Agnus Dei Agnus Dei qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis (2x) Lord Jesus, Think on Me
1 Lord Jesus, think on me,
and purge away my sin. From earth-born passions set me free, and make me pure within. 2 Lord Jesus, think on me, amid the battle's strife. In all my pain and misery be thou my health and life. 3 Lord Jesus, think on me, nor let me go astray. Through darkness and perplexity point thou the heavenly way. 4 Lord Jesus, think on me, that, when this life is past, I may the_eternal brightness see, and share thy joy at last.
