A New Name in Glory

Hymn lyrics and music by C. Austin Miles

Verse 1

• 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.

Chorus

• 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.

Verse 2

• I was humbly kneeling at the cross,
• Fearing naught by God’s angry frown;
• When the heavens opened and I saw
• That my name was written down.

Chorus

Verse 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.

Chorus
