When I say..."I am a Christian"
                                     I'm not shouting "I am saved"
                                     I'm whispering "I was lost"
                                     That is why I chose this way."

                                    When I say... "Iam a Christian"
                                     I don't speak of this with pride.
                                     I'm confessing that I stumble
                                     and need someone to be my guide.

                                    When I say... "I am a Christian"
                                     I'm not trying to be strong.
                                     I'm professing that I'm weak
                                     and pray for 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'm not claiming to be perfect,
                                     My flaws are too visible
                                     but God believes I'm 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.
