Lord Remember Me - Albertina Walker


 Hello brothers and sisters,

Today's video features the late Albertina Walker,  the "Queen of Gospel Music," singing Lord Remember Me in front of a packed and exuberant little church.

She is backed by an awesome choir and talented band—and by the end of the song the congregation is filling the air with joyful shouts and praise to the Lord!

The lyrics are based on what the thief said to Jesus on the cross:

Luke 23:33 and 39-43 - Painting: Bertalan Székely de Ádámos (1835-1910) - "Golgotha"

What a beautiful gift Jesus gave—when He suffered and died for us. 

The story doesn't end there, though—because three days later Jesus rose from the dead—securing our salvation and eternal life if we believe and call on Him as Lord and Savior.

Prophecy About Jesus From Isaiah 53:11-12


Oh! Lord Remember Me - Lyrics

Verse 1:

When on the cross of Calvary
The Lord was crucified
The mob stood 'round about Him
And they mocked Him until He died

And there were two thieves
Hanging there beside Him
Just to share the agony
But one of them
Cried out to Him
Oh! Lord remember me

Verse 2:

Oh! What a shame to kill Him
Out there on that old rugged cross
But such a death was needed
Just to rescue all of us that was lost

Oh! His blood is made a ransom
Just to set the captives free
I know that I'm included
And I know God will remember me

Chorus:

Oh! 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

Oh, yes! He heard my feeble cries
From bondage set me FREE!
And when I reach the pearly gates
I know He will remember me

To Verse 2

------------------------------------------

Thanks so much for stopping by—
 
May God Richly Bless you!

Jesus is LORD!

Time is growing short!

Seek Him!

   Romans 10:9-10

9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 

---------------------------------

If you've made this decision—believed it in your heart and confessed it with your mouth—let God speak to you by reading the Bible—and seek out fellowship with others who also believe.

Pour out your heart to God in Prayer (simply speaking to Him in reverence)—asking Him to reveal Himself to you and to provide for your needs.

Life in Jesus is the best decision you will ever make.

May God Bless You!

Romans 10:9-13
