I’m Not Ashamed to Own My Lord
"For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day." - 2 Timothy 1:12
VERSE 1
I’m not ashamed to own my Lord,
Or to defend His cause;
Maintain the honour of His word,
The glory of His cross.
CHORUS
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.
VERSE 2
Jesus, my Lord! I know His name-
His name is all my trust,
Nor will He put my soul to shame,
Nor let my hope be lost.
CHORUS
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.
VERSE 3
Firm as His throne,
His promise stands,
And He can well secure
What I’ve committed to His hands,
Till the decisive hour.
CHORUS
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.
VERSE 4
Then will He own my worthless name
Before His Father’s face;
And in the new Jerusalem,
Appoint my soul a place.
CHORUS
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.
