1 O Thou, from whom all goodness flows,
I raise my soul to Thee;
In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes,
Dear Lord, remember me!
I raise my soul to Thee;
In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes,
Dear Lord, remember me!
2 When on my aching, burdened heart
My sins lie heavily,
My pardon speak, new peace impart;
In love remember me.
My sins lie heavily,
My pardon speak, new peace impart;
In love remember me.
3 Temptations sore obstruct my way,
And ills I cannot flee;
O give me strength, Lord, as my day;
For good remember me.
And ills I cannot flee;
O give me strength, Lord, as my day;
For good remember me.
4 Distrest with pain, disease, and grief,
This feeble body see;
Grant patience, rest, and kind relief;
Hear, and remember me!
This feeble body see;
Grant patience, rest, and kind relief;
Hear, and remember me!
5 When in the solemn hour of death
I wait Thy just decree,
Be this the prayer of my last breath,
Dear Lord, remember me!
I wait Thy just decree,
Be this the prayer of my last breath,
Dear Lord, remember me!
