According to thy gracious word
In meek humility,
This will I do, my dying Lord
I will remember thee

Thy body broken for my sake
My bread from heav'n shall be;
Thy testamental
And thus remember thee

When to the cross I turn my eyes
And rest on Calvary
O Lamb of God, my sacrifice.
I must remember thee

Remember thee, and all my pains
And all thy love to me;
Yea while a breath, a pulse remains
Will I remember thee

And when these failing lips grow dumb
And mind and memory flee
When thou shalt in thy kingdom come
Jesu remember thee
