when i say i am a christian


when i say "i am a christian"
i'm not shouting "i am saved"
i'm whispering "i was lost"
"thats 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 am weak
and pray for the 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 too visible
but God believes i am worth it


when i say "i am a christian"
i still feel the sting of pain
i have my share of heartaches
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
