According to Thy gracious word

10/15/2025
According to Thy gracious word,
  In meek humility,
This will I do, my dying Lord,
  I will remember Thee.
Thy body, broken for my sake,
  My bread from heaven shall be;
Thy testamental cup I take,
  And thus remember Thee.
Gethsemane can I forget?
  Or there Thy conflict see,
Thine agony and bloody sweat,
  And not remember Thee?
When to the cross I turn mine eyes
  And rest on Calvary,
O Lamb of God, my sacrifice,
  I must remember Thee-
Remember Thee and all Thy pains
  And all Thy love to me;
Yea, while a breath, a pulse remains,
  I will remember Thee.
And when these failing lips grow dumb
  And mind and memory flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come,
  Jesus, remember me.
