[edit] Miscellanea
- The album's title derives from track #2, 'Make My Life A Prayer To You', which begins: "Make my life a prayer to You / I wanna do what You want me to / No empty words and no white lies / no token prayers, no compromise."
- The cover art refers to the Biblical story of the fiery furnace, in which the heroes refuse to bow down to any but the true God.
- The only official Keith Green biography, written by Melody Green, is also titled 'No Compromise'
- Related to the above miscellanea, the book No Compromise is available in RTF and PDF formats (Rich Text Format and Portable Document Format, respectively) on The Ministry Years, Volume Two (1980-1982) (CD release), which has the Enhanced CD label.
