When I say... "I am Christian"

When I say... "I am 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 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 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 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 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 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 Christian"

I'm not holier than Thou,

I'm just a simple sinner

who received God's good grace, somehow!
