I'm not ashamed to beg
while here on earth I stay.
I'm not ashamed to watch
and I'm not ashamed to pray.
The richest man I ever saw
was one that begged the most.
His Soul was filled with Jesus
and with the holy ghost.
And now we are encouraged
come let us travel on
until we join the angels
and sing the holy Song
Where Sickness pain and Sorrow
no more disturb our breast
nor grief nor fear nor horror
be known among the blessed.
The first three verses of her poem were copied from the old Camp-Meeting Hymns published in 1836. This hymn named "The Resurrection Hymn" was republished many times in the mid eighteen-hundreds and put to music. The last verse is original and written by Eliza Dean Wable.
