I' not ashamed to own my 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
1. 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.
2. Firm as His throne His promise stands,
And He can well secure
What I've committed to His hands Till the decisive hour.
3. Then will He own my worthless name Before His
Father's face,
And in the new Jerusalem Appoint my soul a place.
