I AM A CHRISTIAN..yo.
I AM A CHRISTIAN*
When I say..."I'm 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'm 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'm 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'm 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'm 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'm a Christian" I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon HIS name.
When I say..."I'm a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner who received GOD'S good grace, somehow.
I AM A CHRISTIAN
