I'm Not Ashamed to Own my Lord

I'm not a-shamed to own my Lord,
Or to de-fend His cause,
Main-tain the hon-or of His Word,
The glo-ry of His cross.
Je-sus, 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 pro-mise stands,
And He can well se-cure
What I've com-mit-ted to His hands
Till the de-ci-sive hour.
Then will He own my worth-less name
Be-fore His Fa-ther's face,
And in the new Je-ru-sa-lem
Ap-point my soul a place.+
