36. A New Name in Glory

I was once a sinner, but I came pardon to receive from my Lord: This was freely given, and I found that he always kept his word.

There’s a new name written down in glory, and it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine!  And the white robed angels sing the story, 'a sinner has come home.'  For there’s a new name written down in glory, and it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine!  With my sins forgiven I am bound for heaven, never more to roam.

I was humbly kneeling at the cross, fearing naught but God’s angry frown; When the heavens opened and I saw that my name was written down.

There’s a new name written down in glory, and it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine!  And the white robed angels sing the story, 'a sinner has come home.' For there’s a new name written down in glory, and it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine!  With my sins forgiven I am bound for heaven, never more to roam.

3.

In the book ’tis written, 'Saved by grace,' O the joy that came to my soul!  Now I am forgiven, and I know by the blood I am made whole. 

There’s a new name written down in glory, and it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine!  And the white robed angels sing the story, 'a sinner has come home.' For there’s a new name written down in glory, and it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine!  With my sins forgiven I am bound for heaven, never more to roam.
