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!
