When I say that
'I am a Christian',
-
I am not shouting that 'I am clean living.
I'm whispering 'I was lost,
-
but now I'm found and forgiven.'
-
When I say 'I am a Christian'
-
I don't speak of
this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
-
and need Christ
to be my guide.
-
When I say 'I am a Christian'
-
I'm not trying
to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and
-
need His
strength to carry on.
-
When I say 'I am a Christian'
-
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and
-
need God to clean up my mess.
-
When I say 'I am a Christian'
-
I'm not claiming
to be perfect.
My flaws are far too visible,
-
but God believes I am worth it.
When I say 'I am a Christian'
- I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches,
- Oh,
I call upon His name.
-
When I say 'I am a Christian'
-
I'm not holier
than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner who
-
received God's
good grace, somehow!
