I Know My Name Is There

My name is in the Book of Life, O bless the name of Jesus! I rise above all doubt and strife, And read my title clear.

Chorus

I know, I know my name is there; I know, I know My name is written there.

Verse 2

My name once stood with sinners, lost, And here a painful record; But by His blood the Savior cross'd, And placed it on His roll.

Chorus

I know, I know my name is there; I know, I know My name is written there.

Verse 3

Yet inward trouble often cast A shadow o’er my title; But now with full salvation blest, Praise God! it’s ever clear.

I know, I know my name is there; I know, I know My name is written there.

While others climb thro' worldly strife, To carve a name of honor, High up in heaven’s Book of Life, My name is written there.

I know, I know my name is there; I know, I know My name is written there.
