Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. We’re not ashamed to own our Lord And worship him on earth. We love to learn his holy word And know what souls are worth.
2. When Jesus comes in burning flame To recompense the just, The world will know the only name In which the Saints can trust.
3. When he comes down from heav’n to earth With all his holy band, Before creation’s second birth, We hope with him to stand.
4. He then will give us a new name, With robes of righteousness, And, in the New Jerusalem, Eternal happiness.
