When I Say I’m a Christian by Maya AngelouWhen 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’m 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 grace somehow!
