1
Though Thou art God, most glorious, high,
Thou in the flesh to us came nigh,
A lowly man become thereby;
  Lord, I remember Thee!
2
Glory divine was put away
Under the tent of flesh to stay,
No outward beauty to display;
  Lord, I remember Thee!
3
Thou art a root from out dry ground,
Thou wast the Man of sorrows found,
Hated, despised by man around;
  Lord, I remember Thee!
4
Gentle and lowly is Thy heart,
Willing to suffer all Thou art,
To God and man complaining not;
  Lord, I remember Thee!
5
Thou as a man art tender, sweet,
Balanced in every way, complete,
Meal-offering to the Father meet;
  Lord, I remember Thee!
6
Doing the Father's will Thy prize,
Never accepting Satan's lies,
None like Thyself, so faithful, wise;
  Lord, I remember Thee!
7
For Thine obedience to God's will,
Willing to suffer deathly ill,
E'en on the Cross my place to fill,
  Lord, I remember Thee!
8
Therefore hath God exalted Thee,
Given Thee glory, majesty,
Heaven and earth will bow the knee;
  O Lord, I worship Thee!

Lord, I remember thee! You are the most glorious one but you have offered yourself willingly for all our sins thereby establishing the peace with our Father God, making the way enterable. How precious is your living in us. Lord make us renewed day by day.

Gracias amado Señor Jesús! Por ser la única ofrenda que agrada la Padre, ofrenda de grato olor.

Gracias por abrir mis ojos, y verte a ti como esta única ofrenda. Oh Señor Jesús! Firme verdad que me vuelve a tu amor.

Meal-offering to the Father meet;

Lord, I remember Thee!

Thank you Lord for the meal-offering. Without this meal, we’d perish. Amen!

I appreciate that the Lord is the one who came down, who stooped and lowered Himself to be a man, even a root out of the dry ground. He was willing to suffer a such a humiliation to accomplish the Father's will. Outwardly it was a shame, but this shame has now become our glory. We praise Him for His wonderful life

Phil 2:7-9

But emptied Himself, taking the form of a slave, becoming in the likeness of men; And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself, becoming obedient even unto death, and that the death of a cross.

Therefore also God highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name,

Lord, You are God the most glorious, high!! but You laid aside Your glory and splendor and became a lowly man, without outward beauty. You came to do the Father's will, even died on the cross to fill my place!! oh Lord, I remember Thee! Lord, I worship Thee!!

We need to learn how to enter into the particular atmosphere of each Lord's table meeting and stay on one line. Once the meeting begins, we should sense the atmosphere and follow it. We should not have more than one beginning by trying to change the atmosphere or direction of a Lord's table meeting well after it has begun. There should be a smooth transition from one hymn to the next. We should not take this word in a legal way, but we need to exercise our spirit and our mind with its function of understanding to recognize, enter into, discern, and taste the flavor and atmosphere of a meeting. This requires learning.

We should not call hymns and offer praises in a table meeting according to our personal feeling but should follow the corporate flow and atmosphere. In a particular Lord's table meeting, someone may call Hymns, #86, which is not high but is deep and tender. This hymn praises the Lord for His human living. Many Christians do not know how to enter into the feeling of such a hymn because they do not know how to appreciate and praise the Lord for His human living. There will be a lack of continuation if soon after we sing this hymn in a Lord's table meeting, someone calls a hymn such as Hymns, #142, which begins, "Crown Him with many crowns." After a hymn has been called, we should spend some time to taste and digest the hymn. At least four or five prayers of praise are needed to digest most hymns. The dishes in a feast are not served in rapid sequence; instead, there is time between each dish for enjoyment. To call a hymn with a different feeling soon after another one has been sung is to not sense the atmosphere but only take care of one's personal feeling. Our hymn calling should build up a proper spirit of remembering the Lord in His presence. We all need to learn, but no one should be discouraged or take this fellowship as a legal regulation.

There was a human living on this earth not just by man but by God in man. This was God's living in humanity. In Christ's human living, the divine life was mingled with the human life. In the previous message on God's incarnation, we saw that the purpose of the incarnation was to mingle God with man that God and man might be one. We can see the mingling of God and man in the type of the meal offering (Lev. 2:4). Stanza 5 of Hymns, #86 says, "Thou as a man art tender, sweet,/Balanced in every way, complete,/Meal-offering to the Father meet;/Lord, I remember Thee!" In the meal offering, there were two elements. One element was the fine flour made of wheat. The other element was the olive oil. The meal offering was made of fine flour mingled with oil. The word mingle means to combine two elements together to be one entity without a third element being produced. The two elements are combined together, but they still remain distinguishable. God and man are mingled together as one, but they still remain distinguishable.
