WHEN I SAY, "I AM A CHRISTIAN"
When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not shouting,
"I’ve been saved!"
I'm whispering, "I get lost! That's why I chose this
way"
When I say, "I am a Christian" I don't speak with
human pride
I'm confessing that I stumble—needing God 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 pray for strength to carry on
When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of
success
I'm admitting that I've failed and cannot ever pay the debt
When I say, "I am a Christian" I don't think I
know it all
I submit to my confusion asking humbly to be taught
|
When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to
be perfect
My flaws are all 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 heartache, which is why I seek His name
When I say, "I am a Christian" I do not wish to
judge
I have no authority...I only know I'm loved

"But
God commendeth his love
toward
us, in that,
while
we were yet sinners,
Christ
died for us."
