I'm not ashamed to own my Lord,
Or to defend His cause;
Maintain the honour of His word,
The glory of His cross.
At the cross, at the cross,
Where I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away.
It was there by faith I received my sight
And now I am happy all the day.
Jesus, my Lord, I know His name;
His name is all my trust;
Nor will He put my soul to shame,
Nor let my hope be lost.
At the cross, at the cross,
Where I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away.
It was there by faith I received my sight
And now I am happy all the day.
Firm as His throne His promise stands;
And He can well secure
What I've committed to His hands
Till the decisive hour.
At the cross, at the cross,
Where I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away.
It was there by faith I received my sight
And now I am happy all the day.
Then will He own my worthless name
Before His Father's face;
And in the new Jerusalem
Appoint my soul a place.
At the cross, at the cross,
Where I first saw the light,
And the burden of my heart rolled away.
It was there by faith I received my sight
And now I am happy all the day.
