Lyrics
1. O Thou, from Whom
all goodness flows,
I lift my heart to Thee;
In all my sorrows,
conflicts, woes,
|: Dear Lord, remember me. :|
2. When groaning on
my burdened heart
My sins lie heavily,
My pardon speak,
new peace impart;
|: In love remember me. :|
3. Temptations sore
obstruct my way,
And ills I cannot flee:
O give me strength,
Lord, as my day;
|: For good remember me. :|
4. Distressed with pain,
disease, and grief,
This feeble body see;
Grant patience, rest,
and kind relief:
|: Hear and remember me. :|
5. If on my face,
for Thy dear Name,
Shame and reproaches be,
All hail reproach,
and welcome shame,
|: If Thou remember me. :|
6. The hour is near;
consigned to death,
I own the just decree;
“Savior,” with my
last parting breath
|: I’ll cry, “Remember me.” :|
7. ***alt vers***
8. O Thou from whom
all goodness flows,
I lift my heart to Thee;
In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes,
|: Dear Lord, remember me. :|
9. When on my poor
and burdened heart
My sins lie heavily,
Thy pardon speak,
new peace impart;
|: Dear Lord, remember me. :|
10. When trials sore obstruct my way
And ills I cannot flee,
Oh, let my strength be as my day;
|: Lord, remember me. :|
11. If for Thy sake upon my name
Shame and reproach shall be,
All hail reproach
and welcome shame!
|: Good Lord, remember me. :|
12. If worn with pain,
disease, or grief
This feeble body be:
Grant patience, rest, and kind relief;
|: Dear Lord, remember me. :|
13. When in the solemn hour of death
I wait Thy just decree,
Be this the prayer of my last breath:
|: Dear Lord, remember me. :|
14. And when before
Thy throne I stand
And lift my soul to Thee,
Then with the saints
at Thy right hand,
|: Dear Lord, remember me. :|
15. And, oh, when in the hour of death;
I bow to Thy decree
Jesu, receive my parting breath;
|:Good Lord,, “Remember me.” :|
