Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #306 (1888) First Line: No more, my God! I boast no more Lyrics: 1 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.
2 Now for the love I bear his name,
What was my gain, I count but loss;
My former pride I call my shame,
And nail my glory to his cross.
3 Yes,--and I must, and will esteem
All things but loss for Jesus' sake;
Oh, may my soul be found in him,
And of his righteousness partake.
4 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. Topics: Atonement Accepted; Christ Substitute Scripture: Matthew 18:3 Languages: English Tune Title: WARNER
