Christians
When I say... "I am a Christian"I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."I'm 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'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 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 So 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.
