Author: Joseph Grigg; Benjamin Francis Hymnal: Favorite Hymns of Praise #111 (1967) First Line: Jesus, and shall it ever be Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be,
A mortal man ashamed of Thee?
Ashamed of Thee, Whom angels praise
Whose glories shine thro' endless days?
2 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend
On whom my hopes of heav'n depend!
No; when I blush, be this my shame,
That I no more revere His name.
3 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may,
When I've no guilt to wash away;
No tears to wipe, no good to crave,
No fears to quell, no soul to save.
4 Till then--nor is my boasting vain--
Till then I boast a Savior slain;
And O, may this my glory be,
That Christ is not ashamed of me.
Amen. Topics: Faithfulness of Believer; Faithfulness of Believer Languages: English Tune Title: [Jesus, and shall it ever be]
