The Thief Upon the Tree
Roy Acuff

Remember me, remember me

Cried the dying thief upon the tree

The savior raised his thorn-crowned head

And to the dying thief, he said

Today, in paradise, you will be

Because I have remembered thee


Today I cry Remember me

As did the thief upon the tree

O Lord, what will your verdict be?

Will you, in mercy, say to me

Today, in paradise, you will be


Because I have remembered thee?


Oh sinner, cry Remember me

As did the thief upon the tree

This moment may your last one be

Then he could never say to thee

Today, in paradise, you will be

Because I have remembered thee
