Who will remember me?
according to Thy gracious word, in meek humilty,this will i do, my dying Lord, i will remember Thee.
Thy body, broken for my sake, my bread from heaven shall be;
the 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?
When to the cross i turn 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, Jesus, remember me.
when i came to the last stanza during holy communion this morning, i couldn't hold back my tears. i was so touched by tt very last line of the hymn: Jesus, remember me. there, all i need is for Jesus to remember me...i tot abt how, like in this hymn, my physical body will start failing and how my memory might fail me & cause me to forget everything, even Jesus! it's scary, but when i read the last line again, i was no longer afraid. for i know for sure tt my Jesus will never forget me...even if everyone in the world forgets me, or vice versa, all i need is for my Jesus to just...remember me.
