When I say "I am a Christian", I am not shouting that "I'm clean!"
I'm whispering, "I was lost but now I'm found and forgiven."
When I say I am a Christian, I do not 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!
