The~B~Scenes: Christmas 2012- At Nina and Papa's

Christians

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 stumble
And 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 weak
And need His strength to carry on.

When I say...I am 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 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.
