Lyrics

I want no oth­er hand, O Lord,
But Thine my guide to be,
For well I know through all my life
Thou wilt re­mem­ber me.

Refrain

Thou wilt re­mem­ber me, O Lord,
Thou wilt re­mem­ber me!
Thy Word has said, and I be­lieve,
Thou wilt re­mem­ber me.

No tongue can tell the joy I feel
Since I am one with Thee;
And this my song the whole day long:
Thou wilt re­mem­ber me.

Refrain

Thy Spi­rit’s seal is on my heart,
Thy im­age there I see;
And ev­ery hour the wit­ness have
Thou wilt re­mem­ber me.

Refrain

No pow­er shall break my firm re­solve
To live and die in Thee;
For grace through faith has taught my soul
Thou wilt re­mem­ber me.
