Shall I Be Ashamed?
Andrew L. Byers • English
Primary Scripture: Mark 8:38
Verse 1
Shall I be ashamed of my Savior and King, Who left His bright glory, salvation to bring? Who was cruelly crucified, wounded, and maimed— Of such a great Savior shall I be ashamed?
Chorus
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed; No, no! I’ll not be ashamed.
Verse 2
Shall I be ashamed of His wonderful word? Or blush when the praises of Jesus are heard? Shall the laugh of the skeptic my lips tightly seal, Lest I my profession of Christ should reveal?
Chorus
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed; No, no! I’ll not be ashamed.
Verse 3
Shall I be ashamed of the people of God Who walk in the pathway that Jesus has trod? Shall I shrink from opposing the forces of sin, And grieve from my bosom the Spirit within?
Chorus
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed; No, no! I’ll not be ashamed.
Verse 4
I’ll not be ashamed of my dear loving Lord, Ashamed of His people, His cause, or His word; I’ll be faithful in Jesus, His banner I’ll bear, The joy of His kingdom forever to share.
Chorus
No, no! I’ll not be ashamed; No, no! I’ll not be ashamed.
