Deborah Govenor's gift for seamlessly blending lyrics and melody shines in this anthem, echoing the Psalms. A staple in Communion literature, the song's three stanzas explore remembrance from different angles.
Inspired by Luke 22:19, the first verse prompts believers to remember Christ's love, sacrifice, and the promise of His return. It underscores the ancient roots of faith, building confidence in God's enduring truth.
The second stanza, rooted in Gethsemane, encourages believers to seek divine strength in their trials, mirroring Jesus' plea to God. It highlights the importance of relying on God during challenging moments.
The final verse expresses gratitude for Jesus' remembrance during present-day suffering, assuring believers they are not alone. Taking the bread and wine becomes a symbolic reassurance of Christ's constant presence in their darkest hours.
"Remember Me" by Deborah Govenor is a musical journey through the enduring power of remembering Christ's sacrifice and finding solace in His eternal presence.

Lyrics
In the night in which our Savior was betrayed
He broke the bread and to His friends He said:
"Take and eat, this is my body given for you
Take and drink, this blood of mine is shed for you
Do this always to remember me
Remember me."
In the night in which our Savior was denied
He bowed His Head and to the Father cried:
"If it be Your will let this cup pass from me
If it be your will, spare me this agony
In my darkest hour will you remember me?
Remember me."
In the night in which my deepest doubt are known
You come to me and I am not alone
When I taste your blood and body given for me
When I hear your prayer in dark Gethsemane
Then I know you will remember me
Remember me.
O Lord, remember me.
Remember me.
