Jesus, and shall it ever be

Author: Joseph Grigg; Benjamin Francis Hymnal: Church Book #445 (1890) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 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! 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 heaven 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 Saviour slain! And O, may this my glory be, That Christ is not ashamed of me!
