“Lord, When Thy Kingdom Comes, Remember Me;”
Thus Sake The Dying Lips To Dying Ears:
O Faith, Which In That Darkest Hour Could See
The Promised Glory Of The Far-Off Years!
No Kingly Sign Declares That Glory Now,
No Ray Of Hope Lights Up That Awful Hour;
A Thorny Crown Surrounds The Bleeding Brow,
The Hands Are Stretched In Weakness, Not In Power.
Hark! Through The Gloom The Dying Savior Saith,
“Thou Too Shalt Rest In Paradise Today;”
O Words Of Love To Answer Words Of Faith!
O Words Of Hope For Those Who Live To Pray!
Lord, When With Dying Lips My Prayer Is Said,
Grant That In Faith Thy Kingdom I May See;
And, Thinking On Thy Cross And Bleeding Head,
May Breathe My Parting Words, “Remember Me.”
Remember Me, But Not My Shame Or Sin;
Thy Cleansing Blood Hath Washed Them All Away;
Thy Precious Death For Me Did Pardon Win;
Thy Blood Redeemed Me In That Awful Day.
Remember Me; And, Ere I Pass Away,
Speak Thou The Assuring Word That Sets Us Free,
And Make Thy Promise To My Heart, “Today
Thou Too Shalt Rest In Paradise With Me.”
