FORGET ME NOT.
3
Nor is the wish by grace abhorr'd,
Or counted as a spot;
Even the language of Our Lord
Is still—"Forget me not!"

Within the heart His Spirit speaks
The words of truth divine,
And by its heavenly teaching seeks
To make that heart His shrine.
This is "the still small voice," which all,
laid In city, or in grot,
May hear and live: its gentle call
Is—"Man, Forget me not!"
