Full Lyrics
Jesus! and shall it ever be
A mortal man ashamed of Thee!
Ashamed of Thee whom angels praise,
Whose glories shine through endless days.
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.
Ashamed of Jesus! Just as soon
Let midnight be ashamed of noon;
'Tis midnight with my soul till He
Bright morningstar bid darkness flee.
