2. According to Thy gracious word,
According to Thy gracious word, In meek Humility,
This will I do my dying Lord, I will remember Thee.
2 Thy body, broken for my sake, My bread from heaven shall be;
Thy cup of blessing I will take, and thus remember Thee.
3 Can I Gethsemane 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
Yea, while a breath, a pulse remains, will I remember thee.
6 And when these failing lips grow dumb, And mind memory flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come, Jesus, remember me.
