Lyics

JESUS! thou art the sinner's Friend;

As such I look to thee;

Now in the bowels of thy love,

Oh, 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,

Oh, Lord! remember me.



I own I'm guilty-own I'm vile;

Yet thy salvation's free;

Then, in thy all-abounding grace,

Oh, 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, oh, my great Redeemer, Lord,

I pray, remember me.
