LyicsJESUS, thou art the sinner's friend;
As such I look to thee;
Now, in the bowels of thy love,
O Lord, remember me!
Remember thy pure word of grace,
Remember Calvary;
Remember all thy promises,
And then remember me.
Thou mighty Advocate with God!
I yield myself to thee;
While thou art sitting on thy throne,
O Lord, remember me!
I own I'm guilty--own I'm vile;
Yet thy salvation's free;
Then, in thy all-abounding grace,
O Lord, remember me!
Howe'er forsaken or distress'd,
Howe'er oppress'd I be,
Howe'er afflicted here on earth,
Do thou remember me!
And when I close my eyes in death,
And creature helps all flee,
Then, o my great Redeemer, Lord,
I pray remember me!
