I’m not ashamed to own Lord
Or to defend His cause
Maintain the honor of His Word
The glory of His cross.
At the cross! at the cross!
Where I first saw the light
And the burden of my heart rolled away
It was there by faith I received my sight
And now I am happy all the day!
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
Firm as His throne His promise stands
And He can well secure
That I’ve committed to His hands
Till the decisive hour.
Then will He own my worthless name
Before His Father’s face
And, in the New Jerusalem
Appoint my soul a place.
