When On the Cross of Calvary (He Will Remember Me)
Author: E. M. Bartlett Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.8.6 with refrain Appears in 9 hymnals Scripture: Luke 23:42-43 First Line: When on the cross of Calvary Refrain First Line: Will the Lord remember me Lyrics: 1 When on the cross of Calvary
The Lord was crucified,
The mob stood ’round about Him,
And mocked until He died.
Two thieves were nailed beside Him,
To share the agony,
But one of them cried out to Him,
"O Lord remember me.”
Refrain:
Will the Lord remember me
When I am called to go?
When I have crossed death’s chilly sea
Will He His love there show?
O, yes, He heard my feeble cries,
From bondage set me free;
And when I reach the pearly gates,
He will remember me.
2 O, what a shame to kill Him
There on that rugged cross;
But such a death was needed
To rescue all the lost.
His blood was made a ransom
To set the captives free;
I know that I’m included and
He will remember me. [Refrain]
3 At His dear feet I’m kneeling,
My sins I now confess;
I bow in deep repentance,
My soul He’ll surely bless.
My blinded eyes He opens
So that the light I see;
And when I reach the pearly gates
He will remember me. [Refrain] Topics: The Christian Life Death and Life Eternal Used With Tune: HE WILL REMEMBER ME

O Paradise!
Author: G. M. J. Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Luke 23:43 First Line: O golden day, O day of God Refrain First Line: O Paradise, sweet Paradise Lyrics: 1 O golden day, O day of God,
When sinless souls the garden trod!
In bliss supreme, ‘neath sunny skies,
In Eden fair, in Paradise.
Refrain:
O Paradise, sweet Paradise,
From scenes of earth we long to rise;
O paradise, bright Paradise,
Where Jesus reigns beyond the skies.
2 The fatal fall, the sin, the shame,
The death, the doom, the sword aflame,
The curse, the crime beyond disguise,
The earth no more in Paradise. [Refrain]
3 The beaded brow, the silvered hair,
The aching heart, the vacant chair,
The grassy graves, the broken ties,
Are not the scenes of Paradise. [Refrain]
4 To Christ the Lord upon the tree,
A sinner cries:— “Remember me!”
“Today shalt thou,” the Lord replies,
“Be with me there in Paradise.” [Refrain]
5 O golden day when Christ descends,
The curse removes and sorrow ends;
All glory-clad, the ransomed rise
To reign with Him in Paradise. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [O golden day, O day of God]
O Paradise!

Sing, my tongue, how glorious battle
Author: Venantius Honorius Clementianus Fortunatus (c. 535-609); John Mason Neale (1818-1866); William Mair (1830-1920); Arthur Wellesley Wotherspoon (1853-1936) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Luke 23:35-41 Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, how glorious battle
glorious victory became;
and above the cross, his trophy,
tell the triumph and the fame:
tell how he, the earth's Redeemer,
by his death for all o'ercame.
2 When the thirty years were ended,
humbly lived for all to see,
willingly he met his passion,
born to set his people free:
on the cross the Lamb is lifted,
there the sacrifice to be.
3 His the nails, the spear, the spitting,
reed and vinegar and gall;
from his patient body piercèd
blood and water streaming fall:
earth and sea and stars and mankind
by that stream are cleansèd all.
4 Faithful cross, above all other,
one and only noble tree,
none in foliage, none in blossom,
none in fruit your match can be:
focus of the world's redemption,
your dear burden makes us free.
5 Praise and honour to the Father,
praise and honour to the Son,
praise and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
one in might, and one in glory,
while eternal ages run. Topics: Christ Incarnate Passion and Death; Christian Year Good Friday; Jesus cross Used With Tune: PANGE LINGUA

Today I live, one day shall come my death
Author: Fred Kaan (b. 1929) Meter: 10.11.10.11 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Luke 23:6 Lyrics: 1 Today I live, one day shall come my death;
one day shall still my laughter and my crying,
bring to a halt my heartbeat and my breath:
Oh, give me faith for living and for dying.
2 How I shall die, or when, I do not know,
nor where, for endless is the world's horizon;
but save me, God, from thoughts that lay me low,
from morbid fears that freeze my power of reason.
3 When earthly life shall close, as close it must,
let Jesus be my brother and my merit.
Let me without regret recall the past,
and then, into your hands commit my spirit.
4 Meanwhile I live and move and I am glad,
enjoy this life and all its interweavings
each given day, as I take up the thread,
let love suggest my mode, my mood of living. Topics: The Church Celebrates Death and Grieving; Trust Used With Tune: ROBERT
