Lyrics

Do not be ashamed to own Him,
Or obey your Lord’s com­mand;
In your ev­ery word and ac­tion
Show the world just where you stand.

Refrain

Show the world just where you stand,
Gladly follow His com­mand;
Your all re­sign to Christ di­vine,
Show the world just where you stand.

When temp­ta­tions throng around you,
Closer hold His nail pierced hand;
You have joined His bless­èd ser­vice,
Show the world just where you stand.

Refrain

Do not be ashamed to own Him,
Tell it out thro’ all the land;
Loyal ev­er to the Mas­ter,
Show the world just where you stand.
