When I Say, 'I Am A Christian'

When I Say, "I Am A Christian"

When I Say, "I Am A Christian"

I'm Not Shouting "I Am Saved"

I Am Whispering "I Was Lost"

"That's Why I Chose His Way."

When I Say, "I Am A Christian"

I Don't Speak Of This With 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 I Have 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.

Forever Remembered,

Forever Missed
