About this Hymn
In an age defined by self-fulfillment, personal brands, and likes and retweets, "All My Boast Is In Jesus" draws from the epistles of Paul to remind us that our boast should be solely in the cross of Jesus Christ (Gal. 6:14). In our weakness and brokenness we can rest confidently, knowing that his life, death, and resurrection are greater than anything this world has to offer.
Lyrics
Verse 1
What wonder of wonders, what love is this, that Christ would die for me! His goodness, his merit, his righteousness, this sinner's only plea. O foolish pride, be crucified; the work is finished!
Chorus
All my boast is in Jesus; all my hope is his love, and I will glory forever in what the cross has done.
Verse 2
Now fully forgiven my life is filled with graces undeserved. For mercy that flowed down that sacred hill, let praises now return. Rise up, my soul, and bless the Lord! Who else is worthy?
Bridge
Oh, praise the One, forever blessed! Him alone my heart adores. And I will boast in nothing less than the love of Christ my Lord.
Verse 3
I boast not in riches, in strength or might, but in the grace of God. I glory in weakness; to live is Christ, in plenty or in want. That I may know, that all may see his pow'r within me!
Chorus 2
All my boast is in Jesus; all my hope is his love, and I will glory forever in what the cross has done. Now I stand in this freedom, ransomed, clean in his sight, and I cannot be ashamed for my boast is Jesus Christ, my boast is Jesus Christ. Forever, my boast is Jesus Christ.
