Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #298 (1987) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 According to thy gracious word,
in meek humility
this will I do, my loving Lord:
I will remember thee.
2 Thy body, given for my sake,
my bread from heaven shall be;
thy testamental cup I take,
and thus remember thee.
3 Gethsemane can I forget,
or there thy conflict see,
thine agony and bloody sweat,
and not remember thee?
4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes
and rest on Calvary,
O Lamb of God, my sacrifice,
I must remember thee.
5 And when these failing lips grow dumb,
and mind and memory flee,
when thou shalt in thy kingdom come,
then, Lord, remember me.
