My name is in the book of Life, Oh, bless the name of Jesus; I rise above all doubt and strife, And read my title clear. I know, I know, My name is there; I know, I know, My name is written there. My name once stood with sinners lost, And bore a painful record; But by His blood the Savior crossed, And placed it on His roll. Yet inward trouble often cast, A shadow o'er my title; But now with full salvation blest, Praise God! it's ever clear. While others climb through worldly strife To carve a name of honor, High up in heaven's book of Life, My name is written there
