First Line: How can we forget Him, our blessed Redeemer ,

How can we forget Him, our blessed Redeemer ?
How can we forget Him, and wander away,
When He like a Shepherd so carefully guards us,
And keeps us from danger by night and by day ?
We'll come in the sunshine of youth's happy morning,

Our lives to His service we'll cheerfully give ;
And pray for His Spirit to guide and direct us,
That we to His glory and honour may live.

2 How can we forget Him, our blessed Redeemer ;
Who hath brought redemption
through sorrow and pain ?
Yet upon the throne of His Father exalted,
Our great Mediator now liveth again.

3 How can we forget Him, our blessed Redeemer,
Who with watchful kindness is ever so near —
Friend, above all others the best and the truest,
Who never refuseth His children to hear ?
