He Will Remember Me

Author: Eugene M. Bartlett, 1885-1941 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.8.6 with refrain Appears in 11 hymnals Topics: Cross of Jesus Christ First Line: When on the cross of Calv'ry Refrain First Line: Will the lord remember me Lyrics: 1 When on the cross of Calv’ry The Lord was crucified; The mob stood ’round about Him And mocked until He died. Two thieves were nailed beside Him To share the agony, But one of them cried out to Him, "O Lord, remember me.” Refrain: Will the Lord remember me When I am called to go? When I have crossed death’s chilly sea, will He His love there show? O yes, He heard my feeble cries, from bondage set me free. And when I reach the pearly gates He will remember me. 2 Oh, what a shame to kill Him There on that rugged cross; But such a death was needed To rescue all the lost. His blood was made a ransom To set the captives free; I know that I’m included, and He will remember me. [Refrain] 3 At His dear feet I’m kneeling. My sins I now confess; I bow in deep repentance, My soul He’ll surely bless. My blinded eyes He opens So that the light I see, And when I reach the pearly gates, He will remember me. [Refrain] Scripture: Luke 23:42 Used With Tune: HE WILL REMEMBER ME

Patterns of life were spun by that creative word. Of God's intention, love and care we are with growing trust aware. 2 Love came to earth in Christ, our common life to share, choosing to be the least, willing a cross to bear. He died, he rose, that we might live and all our love, responding, give. 3 The Holy Spirit moves people to trace God's plan; such inspiration proves more than the mind can span. Each listening heart is led to find the will of God for humankind. 4 God shall forever reign, ruler of time and space; there, in the midst of life, seen in the human face. We give expression to our creed by love in thought, in word and deed. Used With Tune: LITTLE CORNARD

You live in a palace, exist in a shack. We see you, the gardener, a tree on your back. 2 In millions alive, away and abroad, involved in our life you live down the road. Imprisoned in systems, you long to be free. We see you, O Jesus, still bearing your tree. 3 We hear you, O Man [Christ], in agony cry. For freedom you march, in riots you die. Your face in the papers we read and we see. The tree must be planted by human decree. 4 You choose to be made at one with the earth; the dark of the grave prepares for your birth. Your death is your rising, creative your word: the tree springs to life and our hope is restored. Used With Tune: LIFE
