No eye has seen nor ear has heard all the things God will unveil Upon the rock God builds His church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail I know God's gifted me with things I do, and I do them well But there are times when I praise God for my success and then I fail And I still make mistakes, no matter how hard I try He's God and I am not, on this I must rely So if I boast, I boast in God's strength when I am weak And if I boast, I boast in God's grace that carries me And if I'm foolish then God is wise And when my help comes, I'll lift my eyes To the one who never failed, and always held me close In God I make my boast In God I make my boast In God I boast Honestly, if I were grading properly, I'd probably Give myself an A for my humility, I'm constantly Amazed at how I can skillfully tell a story that's flawed I boast in my ability without giving glory to God It's tough to walk the line, I'm called to shine all the time But this can lead to thinking I'm the reason why and it leads to pride And so I back up, and I let Him take the front seat And I recognize that He's divine, without Him I am nothing Left struggling, wandering and wondering Then suddenly I'm pondering what's underneath Kinda puzzling, I'm wallowing in unbelief But God is comforting, so I'mma see His love for me So in conclusion, I'mma do what I should And never take all the credit whenever I do something good Because I'm learning that it's not that all attention is bad But I'mma boast in God alone when I am tempted to brag And I still make mistakes, no matter how hard I try He's God and I am not, on this I must rely And if I boast I boast in God's strength when I am weak And if I boast, I boast in God's grace that carries me And if I'm foolish then God is wise And when my help comes, I'll lift my eyes To the one who never failed, and always held me close In God I make my boast And I still make mistakes, no matter how hard I try He's God and I am not, on this I must rely And if I boast, I boast in God's strength when I am weak And if I boast, I boast in God's grace that carries me And if I'm foolish then God is wise And when my help comes, I'll lift my eyes To the one who never failed, and always held me close In God I make my boast I boast in God's strength when I am weak And if I boast, I boast in God's grace that carries me And if I'm foolish then God is wise And when my help comes, I'll lift my eyes To the one who never failed, and always held me close In God I make my boast Not myself In God I make my boast And no one else In God I make my boast Not myself In God I make my boast And no one else In God I make my boast Not myself In God I make my boast And no one else In God I make my boast Not myself In God I make my boast And if I'm foolish then God is wise And when my help comes, I'll lift my eyes To the one who never failed, and always held me close In God I make my boast In God I make my boast In God I boast
