Shall I be ashamed of
my Savior and King,
Who left His bright glory,
salvation to bring?
Who was cruelly crucified,
wounded, and maimed—
Of such a great Savior
shall I be ashamed?
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed;
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed.
Shall I be ashamed of
His wonderful word?
Or blush when the praises
of Jesus are heard?
Shall the laugh of the skeptic
my lips tightly seal,
Lest I my profession of
Christ should reveal?
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed;
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed.
Shall I be ashamed of
the people of God
Who walk in the pathway
that Jesus has trod?
Shall I shrink from opposing
the forces of sin,
And grieve from my bosom
the Spirit within?
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed;
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed.
I’ll not be ashamed of
my dear loving Lord,
Ashamed of His people,
His cause, or His word;
I’ll be faithful in Jesus,
His banner I’ll bear,
The joy of His kingdom
forever to share.
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed;
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed.
