I'm not ashamed to own my Lord
I'm not ashamed to own my Lord, Or to defend his cause, Maintain the honour of his Word, The glory of his Cross. 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 What 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. |
Non me pudebit Domini, eique consulam; fidem testabor Nuntii Crucisque gloriam. Deus mi scitur Jesus, et huic credo Nomini; nec animam deiciet, spem sustinens mihi. Ut sedes, firma pignora; potestque efficere quaequae sunt ei credita prius discrimine. Indignum, sed apud Patrem agnoscet me suum, assignans in Jerusalem Nova mihi locum. |
