Below is copy from the Bulletin Board of Methodist church at Jalan Pantai, Butterworth.
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 then them,
I’m just a simple sinner
who received God’s good grace, some how!
