In meek humility,
This will I do, my dying Lord,

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 Remember Thee, and all Thy pains,
And all Thy love to me;
Yes, while a breath, a pulse remains,
Will I remember Thee.
6 And when these failing lips grow dumb,
And mind and memory flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come,
Jesus, remember me! Used With Tune: DUNDEE

O how He loves!
His is love beyond a brother's
O how He loves!
Earthly friends may fail or leave us,
One day soothe, the next day grieve us:
But this Friend will ne'er deceive us
O how He loves!
2 'Tis eternal life to know Him
O how He loves!
Think, O think how much we owe Him
O how He loves!
With His precious blood He bought us,
In the wilderness He sought us,
To His fold He safely brought us
O how He loves!
3 Through His name we are forgiven
O how He loves!
Backward shall our foes be driven
O how He loves!
Best of blessings He'll provide us,
Nought but good shall e'er betide us!
Safe to glory He will guide us
O how He loves!

Death! thy sting is gone forever!
He who deigned for me to die,
lives, the bands of death to sever.
He shall raise me from the dust:
Jesus is my hope and trust.
2 Jesus lives, and reigns supreme;
and, his kingdom still remaining,
I shall also be with him,
ever living, ever reigning.
God has promised; be it must:
Jesus is my hope and trust.
3 Jesus lives, and by his grace,
vict'ry o'er my passions giving,
I will cleanse my heart and ways,
ever to his glory living.
Me he raises from the dust:
Jesus is my hope and trust.
4 Jesus lives! I know full well
naught from him my heart can sever,
life nor death nor pow'rs of hell,
joy nor grief, henceforth forever.
None of all his saints is lost:
Jesus is my hope and trust.
5 Jesus lives and death is now
but my entrance into glory.
Courage, then, my soul, for thou
hast a crown of life before thee;
thou shalt find thy hopes were just:
Jesus is the Christian's trust.

Cast thy dreams of ease away;
Thou art in the midst of foes:
"Watch and pray."
2 Principalities and powers,
Mustering their unseen array,
Wait for thy unguarded hours:
"Watch and pray."
3 Gird thy heavenly armour on,
Wear it ever night and day;
Ambushed lies the evil one:
"Watch and pray."
4 Hear the victors who o'ercame:
Still they mark each warrior's way;
All with one sweet voice exclaim,
"Watch and pray."
5 Hear, above all, hear thy Lord,
Him thou lovest to obey;
Hide within thy heart His word,
"Watch and pray."
6 Watch, as if on that alone
Hung the issue of the day;
Pray, that help may be sent down:
"Watch and pray."
