Oh, remember! Oh, remember!
At what price the Saviour bought thee;
To redeem thee, home to bring thee,
From the throne He came and sought thee.
Glory's splendor He surrendered,
Shame despising for thy prizing—
Oh, remember!
Oh, remember! Oh, remember!
What that night thy sins prepared Him,
Deep abasement, sore amazement,
Not one tithe of anguish spared Him.
Wrath's awaking—God's forsaking—
Thou didst earn it, He has borne it—
Oh, remember!
Oh, remember! Oh, remember!
He Himself in death has given
To redeem thee, home to bring thee—
Child of wrath—as heir of heaven.
From earth's sorrow, judgment's morrow,
He has drawn thee, mercy shown thee—
Oh, remember!
