King of my life, I crown Thee now; Thine shall the glory be, Lest I forget Thy thorn-crowned brow, Lead me to Calvary.
Chorus: Lest I forget Gethsemane; Lest I forget Thine agony; Lest I forget Thy love for me, Lead me to Calvary.
Show me the tomb where Thou wast laid, tenderly mourn’d and wept; Angels in robes of light arrayed, Guarded Thee whilst Thou slept.
Chorus:
Let me, like Mary thro’ the gloom, come with a gift to Thee; show to me now the empty tomb, Lead me to Calvary.
Chorus:
May I be willing, Lord, to bear daily my cross for Thee; even Thy cup of grief to share, Thou hast borne all for me.
Chorus: Lest I forget Gethsemane; Lest I forget Thine agony; Lest I forget Thy love for me, Lead me to Calvary.

We sang this wonderful hymn over and over in my young, tender years growing up in Pennsylvania. These hymns reside in the spirit eternally. Thank you, Lord, for birthing this in my spirit today.
