Ashamed of thee whom angels praise, whose glories shine through endless days! 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far let evening blush to own a star: he sheds the beams of light divine o'er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon let midnight be ashamed of noon; 'tis midnight with my soul till he, bright Morning Star, bid darkness flee. 4 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. 5 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. 6 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.
