Verse 1
Ashamed of my Savior? I'll ever decline (I'll ever decline) With merciful favor, my soul, He refines. (my soul, He refines.) Tho' sad, my condition and tarnished, my soul; (and tarnished, my soul;) Deserving perdition instead of His fold. (instead of His fold.)
Verse 2
O Friend, I would serve Thee, Thou light of my day; (Thou light of my day;) Let sin not assail me nor darken my way. (nor darken my way.) Tho' often I falter and oft I may stray, (and oft I may stray,) Your will is my halter, Your love is my stay. (Your love is my stay.)
Verse 3
So swiftly, life passes; So soon it will end, (So soon it will end,) In dust and in ashes from where life began; (from where life began;) But soon 'twill be ending as sure as the dawn, (as sure as the dawn,) O shall I be wending my way safely home? (my way safely home?)
Verse 4
My Lord, will You know me and not be ashamed, (and not be ashamed,) To say to the Father, "This one I have claimed?" ("This one I have claimed?") And will You, my name to Jehovah, confess? (Jehovah, confess?) O bid me, my Savior, to enter Your rest. (to enter Your rest.)
