Jesus, and can it ever be,
A mortal man ashamed of thee?
Scorned be the thought by rich and poor;
My soul shall scorn it more and more.
Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may,
When I’ve no sins to wash away,
No tears to wipe, no joys to crave,
And no immortal soul to save.
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.
Till then —nor is the boasting vain —
Till then I boast a Saviour slain;
And O, may this my portion be,
That Saviour’s not ashamed of me!
