When I say... "I am a Christian,"
I'm not shouting, "I'm clean livin'!"
I am whispering, "I was lost,
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 am professing that I am 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 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 had my share of heartaches,
So I call upon His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian,"
I'm not trying to be 'holier than thou',
I'm just a simple sinner,
Who recieved God's grace somehow!
