I Boast No More

Caedmon's Call

.:: I Boast No More ::.

No More My God, I boast no more
Of all the duties I have done
I quit the hopes I held before,
To trust the merits of They Son

No more my God
No more my God
No more my God
I boast no more.

Now, for the loss I bear his name,
What was my gain I count my loss
My former pride I call my shame
And nail my glory to His cross

Yes, and I must, I will esteem
All things but loss for Jesus' sake
O may my soul be found in Him
And of His righteousness partake
Amen, amen

The best obedience of my hands
Dares not appear before Thy throne
But faith can answer Thy demands
By pleading what my Lord has done

    I know what you mean! This song has brings so much meaning to me. I don't care about the music. I just love the lyrics. The whole idea is that instead of being proud of Jesus's sacrifice, we should be thankful. What a humble message

    Simply amazing, this song, wish I could see them again ... they toured last year w/Derek Webb, but nowhere near me (CT) ... saw them in the late '90s at a church up here, on the "40 Acres" tour
