I Boast No More, Caedmon's Call

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

I LOVE Caedmon's Call!!! What album is that from? I only have 40 acres and Share the Well. Most of the time, you just read the lyrics and it's like, ok, that's cool, whatever, but then you hear their music and it's like, that's the best song I've ever heard! I need to find that song...what CD? I guess I could just ask you tonight, probably faster...


reminds me of Phil. 1:21, which is my favorite verse, and I noticed you had it as your signature!

I really enjoy their music, it has so much of the Truth in it. Have you ever heard of Steve Green?
He is also one of my favorites.

This is the album, In The Company Of Angels: A Call To Worship and we also have Long Line of Leavers. Maybe I could get Lindy to burn you a copy.

You are. . . going. . . to be. . . like. . . here. . . in 2 hours and 21 minutes!!!!!!!!
