According to Thy Gracious Word

James Montgomery, 1826

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; The cup, thy precious Blood, I take, And thus remember thee.

3. Gethsemane, can I 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. And when these failing lips grow dumb, And mind and memory flee, When thou shalt in thy kingdom come, Then, Lord, remember me.
