82. In Remembrance of Me

1 We adore Thee, O Lord, for the wonderful grace
That has kept and preserved us till now;
We hallow Thy goodness, Thy infinite love,
While out hearts in Thy presence, Thy presence we bow.

Refrain:
In accordance to day with Thy blessed command,
We commune at Thy table with Thee,
Recalling the words that to us Thou hast said,
“Do this in remembrance of Me.”

2 Tho’ unworthy to eat of Thy life-giving bread,
Or to gather the crumbs as they fall;
We come thro’ Thy merit and take of the feast
In Thy mercy provided, provided for all. [Refrain]

3 May our strength be renewed and our souls be impressed
With the scenes that by faith we behold,
And show forth the death of the Lord till He come,
And we rest in Thy glory, Thy glory untold. [Refrain]
