No More, My God! 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 Thy Son.

Now, for the love 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, and will esteem
All things but loss for Jesus' sake;
O may my soul be found in Him,
And of His righteousness partake.

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.
