Sheet music

  1. 1My name is in the book of Life,O 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 truly know, I know my name is there;)I know, I know My name is written there.(I know my name is there,)
  2. 2My name once stood with sinners, lost,And bore a painful record;But by His blood the Savior cross’d,And placed it on His roll.I know, I know My name is there;(I know, I truly know, I know my name is there;)I know, I know My name is written there.(I know my name is there,)
  3. 3Yet inward trouble often castA shadow o’er my title;But now with full salvation blest,Praise God! it’s ever clear.I know, I know My name is there;(I know, I truly know, I know my name is there;)I know, I know My name is written there.(I know my name is there,)
  4. 4While others climb through worldly strife,To carve a name of honor,High up in heaven’s book of Life,My name is written there.I know, I know My name is there;(I know, I truly know, I know my name is there;)I know, I know My name is written there.(I know my name is there,)
