Christians
By Maya Angelou

When I say... "I am a Christian"

Im not shouting "Im clean livin.

Im whispering "I was lost,

Now Im found and forgiven."

When I say... "I am a Christian"

I dont speak of this with pride.

Im confessing that I stumble

and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... "I am a Christian"

Im not trying to be strong.

Im professing that Im weak

And need His strength to carry on.

When I say... "I am a Christian"

Im not bragging of success.

Im admitting I have failed

And need God to clean my mess.

When I say... "I am a Christian"

Im 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"

Im not holier than thou,

Im just a simple sinner

Who received Gods good grace, somehow.

Christians do not think they are perfect or better than others.

They know they are not.
