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 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
