WhenI say ... I am a Christian
I should not be shouting "I am saved".
But whispering "I get lost".
That is why I chose this way.
When I say ... I am a Christian
I don’t speak of this with pride.
I’m confessing that I stumble,
And need someone to be my guide.
When I say ... I am a Christian
I’m not trying to be strong.
I’m professing that I am weak,
And pray for strength to carry on.
When I say ... I am a Christian
I’m not bragging of success.
I’m admitting I have failed,
And cannot ever pay the debt.
When I say ... I am a Christian
I’m not claiming to be perfect.
My flaws are too visible,
But God believes I’m worth it.
When I say ... I am a Christian
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches,
Which is why I seek HIS name.
When I say ... I am a Christian
I do not wish to judge.
I have do not have that authority,
I only know I’m loved.
