Hymnal: The Morning Star #19 (1877) First Line: I see Thee, blessed Jesus Refrain First Line: Is it I? Is it I? Lyrics: 1 I see Thee, blessed Jesus,
Nailed to the cross to die;
Did I assist to nail Thee,
Dear Lord, and was it I?
The mocking Jews array Thee,
And lead Thee out to die;
Did I, dear Lord, betray Thee,
Dear Lord, and was it I?
Chorus:
Is it I? Is it I?
Blessed Savior, is it I?
Oh, help me here to serve thee,
And crown me by and by.
2 Thou blessed, loving Jesus,
Do I Thy name deny?
Afar off do I follow,
Dear Lord, say, is it I?
Afraid to stand beside Thee,
A trembling wretch am I;
When scoffing men deride Thee,
Do I thy name deny? [Chorus]
3 Afraid to own my Savior,
Before a face of clay!
A shiv'ring naked beggar,
Ashamed of kings' array?
Lord, help me now to own Thee,
And all the world defy;
That Thou, dear Lord, wilt crown me,
In heaven by and by. [Chorus]
