I'm not shouting "I am saved"
I'm whispering "I get lost!"
"That is why I chose this way."
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need someone 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 have failed
and cannot ever pay my debt.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect.
my flaws are 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
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 know I'm only loved.
