Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The New Christian Hymnal #164 (1929) 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,
I will remember Thee.
2. Thy body, broken for my sake,
My bread from heav'n shall be;
Thy testamental cup I take,
And thus remember Thee,
And thus remember Thee.
3. Gethsemane can I forget?
Or there Thy conflict see,
Thine agony and bloody sweat,
And not remember Thee,
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,
I must remember Thee.
5. And when these failing lips grow dumb,
And mind and mem'ry flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come,
Then, Lord, remember me,
Then, Lord, remember me!
