Remember Me
Kutless's song "Remember Me" is a worship ballad reflecting on the crucifixion of Jesus and the wonder of His grace. The lyrics express personal shame and unworthiness, yet marvel that Christ, who left heaven to save sinners, would remember and redeem the speaker. The song draws on the account of the thief on the cross, asking to be remembered in paradise. It emphasizes the sacrifice of Jesus, the breaking of chains, and the freedom found in His blood. The overall tone is humble, grateful, and filled with awe at God's love and salvation.
I looked in Your eyes
And saw it for a moment
The passion in Your cry
The chains of life are broken
Put to death by Your people
You came to bring us life
Only hope for the hopeless
Will You remember me?
I've been ashamed
I've been put down
Head in my hands
My life on the ground
Left heaven to save
Liars and thieves
Sinners like me
Your blood sets us free
Who am I
That You would remember me?
Spent all of my years
Stealing from the world
With everything i had
I was still so poor
You have everything to lose
But You're dying here with me
I believe
Will You remember me?
I've been ashamed
I've been put down
Head in my hands
My life on the ground
Left heaven to save
Liars and thieves
Sinners like me
Your blood sets us free
Who am I?
Take what I have left my Savior
Take me with You from this cross
When I leave this life completely
Remember me
I've been ashamed
I've been put down
Head in my hands
My life on the ground
Left heaven to save
Liars and thieves
Sinners like me
Your blood sets us free
I've been ashamed
I've been put down
Head in my hands
My life on the ground
Left heaven to save
Liars and thieves
Sinners like me
Your blood sets us free
Who am I
That You would remember me?
