The Cyber Hymnal ‎#9248

9248. I’m not ashamed of Jesus

1 I’m not ashamed of Jesus,
Nor of His blessèd Word;
The tidings of salvation
My willing heart has heard.

Refrain:
Ashamed, ashamed of Jesus!
Ashamed to make Him known!
Oh, no! But let me glory
In Jesus Christ alone.

2 I’m not ashamed of Jesus,
His name is Lord and King;
But lowly ones may love Him,
And join His praise to sing. [Refrain]

3 His messages of pardon,
Of truth and love and grace,
I long to bear to others,
That they may see His face. [Refrain]

4 The bearer of good tidings
Should never be ashamed;
Let all rejoice in Jesus,
Wherever He is named. [Refrain]
