According to Thy gracious word,
In meek humility,
This will I do, my dying Lord,
I will remember Thee.
In meek humility,
This will I do, my dying Lord,
I will remember Thee.

Thy body, broken for my sake,
My bread from heaven shall be;
Thy testamental cup I take,
And thus remember Thee.
My bread from heaven shall be;
Thy testamental cup I take,
And thus remember Thee.

Gethsemane can I forget?
Or there Thy conflict see,
Thine agony and bloody sweat,
And not remember Thee?
Or there Thy conflict see,
Thine agony and bloody sweat,
And not remember Thee?

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

Remember Thee and all Thy pains
And all Thy love to me;
Yea, while a breath, a pulse remains,
I will remember Thee.
And all Thy love to me;
Yea, while a breath, a pulse remains,
I will remember Thee.

And when these failing lips grow dumb
And mind and memory flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come,
Jesus, remember me.
And mind and memory flee,
When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come,
Jesus, remember me.

As a London newspaper editor, James Montgomery remembered the poor and downtrodden. He worked hard for the abolition of slavery and was imprisoned for his strong editorials.
It would have been easy for this busy journalist to get caught up in the vital issues of the day and to forget the vital issues of eternity. But Montgomery resolved that he would never become too busy to remember what Jesus had done for him. - Great Songs of Faith by Brown and Norton

Remembering the Lord by this hymn is a kind of having an intimate relationship, because of His death and resurrection we have the privilege to remember our Saviour and Lord. Hallelujah!

Good song. It reminds me how God incarnated to [become] flesh and become the Lamb of God. :)

As the Spirit leads, this may be a good opening hymn for the Lord's table meeting because of it's length and content. Good for bringing the saints into the spirit of the meeting.
