When I say... "I am a Christian,"

I’m not shouting "I am saved."

I’m whispering "I was lost,"

That’s 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 Him as my Guide.

 

When I say... "I am a Christian,"

I’m not trying to be strong.

I’m professing that I’m weak

And need strength to carry on.

 

When I say... "I am a Christian,"

I’m not bragging of success.

I’m admitting I have failed

And can never pay the debt.

 

When I say... "I am a Christian,"

I still feel heartache and pain.

I have my share of troubles

That’s why I seek His name.

 

When I say... "I am a Christian,"

I don’t claim to perfect be.

My flaws are far too many

But God sees worth in me.

 

When I say... "I am a Christian,"

It’s not to stand and judge

It’s to pray that you will know Him

And be loved as I am loved.
