The Thief Lyrics by Phil King

2021

[Verse 1]
How am I here, hanging on a cross next to Jesus?
Condemned to die, yet dying by the Savior of the world?
I see His eyes, I see perfection hanging as I suffer
He's my only hope and He suffers next to me

[Chorus]
Lord remember me when You come into Your Kingdom
Lord remember me for I receive my just reward
As we both die together, I know I don't deserve You
But all I ask is Lord remember me

[Verse 2]
I know He's free, He's free of sin that brought me to this moment
Yet it's the same, this punishment that's mine He gladly bears it
Could I be the first, the first to enter after it is finished?
I raise my voice, could He remember me?

[Chorus]
Lord remember me when You come into Your Kingdom
Lord remember me, I receive my just reward
As we both die together, I know I don't deserve You
But all I ask is: Lord remember me

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 3]
He looks my way and without a trace of fear He stares right through me
I see those eyes, it's almost like He's always known and loved me
He lifts His voice says, "Surely on this day we'll be together
We'll share the cross and then paradise", oh yeah

[Chorus]
I'll remember You so come into my Kingdom
I'll remember You and now I'm Your reward
And here we'll die together and then we'll live forever
Child surely I'll remember You
This cross you see, it is your rescue
Child surely I'll remember You
