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
