According To Thy Gracious Word Lyrics

By Thomas Hastings & James Montgomery

 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 heaven shall be;

 thy cup of blessing I will take,

 and thus remember thee.



 Can I Gethsemane forget

 or there thy conflict see,

 thine agony and bloody sweat,

 and not remember thee?



 When to the cross I tum mine eyes,

 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,

 will I remember thee.



 And when these failing lips grow dumb,

 and mind and memory flee,

 when thou shalt in thy kingdom come,

 then, Lord, remember me.
