The Cyber Hymnal ‎#4531

4531. A New Name in Glory

1. I was once a sinner, but I came
Pardon to receive from my Lord:
This was freely given, and I found
That He always kept His word.

Refrain
There’s a new name written down in glory,
And it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine!
And the white robed angels sing the story,
A sinner has come home.
For there’s a new name written down in glory,
And it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine!
With my sins forgiven I am bound for Heaven,
Never more to roam.

2. I was humbly kneeling at the cross,
Fearing naught but God’s angry frown;
When the heavens opened and I saw
That my name was written down. [Refrain]

3. In the Book ’tis written, Saved by Grace,
O the joy that came to my soul!
Now I am forgiven, and I know
By the blood I am made whole. [Refrain]
