1. Jesus and shall it ever be,
A mortal man ashamed of Thee?
Ashamed of Thee whom angels praise,
Whose glories shine through endless days?
Chorus. Ashamed of Jesus (ashamed of Jesus, ashamed of Jesus),
I never, I will never be; (I will never be;)
For Jesus my savior, (for Jesus my savior, for Jesus my savior,)
Is not ashamed of me.
2. Ashamed of Jesus! Sooner far
Let evening blush to own a star;
He sheds the beans of light divine
O’er this benighted soul of mine.
3. Ashmed 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.
4. Ashamed of Jesus! Yes i may,
When I’ve no guilt to wash away,
No tear to wipe, no good to crave,
No fears to quell, no soul to save.
