How easily I forget my stance in grace. I boast in my flesh, am unashamed of my sin, and pursue the glory of Jenn. This song by Devon Kauflin greatly affected my soul at Na. It is a needed reminder that I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live.
No more my God, I boast no more,
of everything my hands have done.
I quit the hopes I held before,
to trust the merits’ of your Son.
Now for his love I bare his name.
My former pride I call my shame.
What was my gain, I count my loss.
And I nail my glory to his cross.
And by your grace I will esteem,
all things but loss for Jesus sake.
Oh may my soul be find in him.
And of his righteousness partake
All of the works of my own hands,
I did not bring before your throne.
My faith responds to your demands,
By pleading what my Lord has done.
Now for His love I bare his name
My former pride I call my shame
What was my gain, I count my loss
And I nail my glory to his cross.
