Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Hymnbook #444 (1955) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 According to Thy gracious word,
In meek humility,
This will I do, my dying Lord,
I will remember Thee.
2 Thy body, broken for my sake,
My bread from heaven shall be;
Thy testamental cup I take,
And thus remember Thee.
3 When to the cross I turn mine eyes,
And rest on Calvary,
O Lamb of God, my Sacrifice,
I must remember Thee;
4 Remember Thee, and all Thy pains,
And all Thy love to me:
Yea, while a breath, a pulse remains
Will I remember Thee.
5 And when these failing lips grow dumb,
And mind and memory flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy Kingdom come,
Jesus, remember me.
Amen. Topics: Bread of Life, The; Christ Lamb of God; Communion, Holy; Church, The Lord's Supper, The Scripture: Luke 22:19 Tune Title: DALEHURST
