71. Is My Name Written There?

Lord, I care not for riches, Neither silver nor gold;
I would make sure of heaven,
I would enter the fold; In the book of thy kingdom,
With its pages so fair,
Tell me, Jesus, my Saviour,
Is my name written there?

*CHORUS
Is my name written there,
On the pages white and fair?
In the book of thy kingdom,
Is my name written there?*

Lord, my sins they are many,
Like the sands of the sea;
But thy blood, O my Saviour is sufficient for me;
For thy promise is written , In bright
letters that glow, “Though your sins be as scarlet,
I will make them like snow.”

O that beautiful city, With its mansions of light,
With its glorified beings In pure garments of white;
Where no evil thing cometh, To despoil what is fair,
Where the angels are watching,
Is my name written there?
