When I Say, "I Am A Christian"

When I say..."I am a Christian"-Maya Angelou

When I say... "I am 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 am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumbleand need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weakAnd need His strength to carry on.

When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failedAnd need God to clean my mess.

When I say... "I am 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 am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.

When I say... "I am a Christian" I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner who received God's good grace, somehow!
