i glory not
in the achieving
i take no pride
in what i've done
i take the life
that i've been given
and, through God
i overcome.

i boast not
in beauty, talent
take no joy
in what most laud
i only hope
that what i do now
will be pleasing
to my God.

i will shout
from mountains high
i will scream into the blue
not of my own
strength or power
but of what
You helped me do.

i glory not
in past victories
in the things
which are now gone
i will glory in my
weakness
it is through You
that i am
strong.
