I'm Not Ashamed to Own My Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 672 hymnals Scripture: Romans 1:16 Lyrics: 1 I'm not ashamed to own my Lord, or to defend his cause, maintain the honor of his Word, the glory of his cross. 2 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. 3 Firm as his throne his promise stands, and he can well secure what I've committed to his hands till the decisive hour. 4 Then will he own my worthless name before his Father's face, and in the new Jerusalem appoint my soul a place.

Hymn 34 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 107 hymnals Scripture: Romans 1:16 First Line: What shall the dying sinner do Lyrics: What shall the dying sinner do That seeks relief for all his woe? Where shall the guilty conscience find Ease for the torment of the mind? How shall we get our crimes forgiv'n? Or form our natures fit for heav'n? Can souls all o'er defiled with sin Make their own powers and passions clean? In vain we search, in vain we try, Till Jesus brings his gospel nigh; 'Tis there such power and glory dwell As save rebellious souls from hell. This is the pillar of our hope That bears our fainting spirits up: We read the grace, we trust the word, And find salvation in the Lord. Let men or angels dig the mines, Where nature's golden treasure shines; Brought near the doctrine of the cross, All nature's gold appears but dross. Should vile blasphemers with disdain Pronounce the truths of Jesus vain, I'll meet the scandal and the shame, And sing and triumph in his name.

Hymn 35 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Scripture: Romans 1:16 First Line: Not by the laws of innocence Lyrics: Not by the laws of innocence Can Adam's sons arrive at heav'n; New works can give us no pretence To have our ancient sins forgiv'n. Not the best deeds that we have done Can make a wounded conscience whole; Faith is the grace, and faith alone, That flies to Christ, and saves the soul. Lord, I believe thy heav'nly word, Fain would I have my soul renewed; I mourn for sin, and trust the Lord To have it pardoned and subdued. O may thy grace its power display, Let guilt and death no longer reign; Save me in thine appointed way, Nor let my humble faith be vain.

Jesus, and can it ever be

Author: Gregg Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,270 hymnals Scripture: Romans 1:16 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and can it ever be, A mortal man ashamed of thee! Blush at the thought, ye rich and poor; Bow at his footstool and adore! 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far May evening blush to own a star: Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon May midnight be ashamed of noon. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may, When I've no crimes to wash away; No tears to wipe, no joys to crave, No fears to quell, no soul to save! 4 Ashamed of Jesus, that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heaven depend! No: when I blush, be this my shame, That I no more revere his name. Topics: The Christian Life Consecration and Activity; Not Ashamed of Jesus

Author: Bowring Appears in 1,513 hymnals Scripture: Romans 1:16 Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. 2 When the woes of life o'ertake me, Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, Never shall the cross forsake me; Lo! it glows with peace and joy. 3 When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the cross the radiance streaming Adds more luster to the day. 4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the cross are sanctified; Peace is there that knows no measure, Joys that through all time abide. 5 In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime.
