Text: | Not Ashamed |
1 I'm not ashamed to own my Lord,
Or to defend his cause;
Maintain the honor of his word,--
The glory of his cross.
2 Jesus, my God! I know his name;
His name is all my trust;
Nor will he put my soul to shame,
Nor let my hope be lost.
3 Firm as his throne his promise stands,
And he can well secure
What I've committed to his hands,
Till the decisive hour.
4 Then will he own my worthless name
Before his Father's face,
And in the New Jerusalem
Appoint my soul a place.
