Abbott Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Methinks, when in the judgment Lyrics: 1 Methinks, when in the judgment, I stand at God’s white throne, My sins will rise before me, Their awful guilt I’ll own; Then in that awful moment I’ll reach the Savior’s side, And touch His flowing garments, For ’twas for me He died. 2 He has from sin redeemed me, I know I am His child; But when I stand in Heaven, Before Heav’n’s undefiled, Past memories may come o’er me, My sin remembered be, But oh! I shall remember, That Jesus died for me. 3 Oh, I would not forget them, Lest I’d forget ’tis meet, To kneel before my Savior, Low at His piercèd feet; When crowned with Him in glory, I’d in His wounds abide, Confess thro’ endless ages, That for my sins He died.
