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.
當我說:「我是基督徒時」,
我並不是大聲的說:「我得救了。」
而是細聲的說:「我迷路了。」
因此我選擇這條路。
When I say…”I am a Christian”
I don’t speak of this with pride.
I’m confessing that I stumble
And need someone to be my guide.

我並不是說話顯得驕傲,
而只是自己承認跌倒了,
需要人指引我。

And pray for strength to carry on.

需要祈求力量繼續行走。

I’m admitting I have failed
And cannot ever pay the debt.

無法付債。

My flaws are all too visible,
But God believes I’m worth it.

I still feel the sting of pain
I have my share of heartaches
Which is why I speak His name.

I do not wish to judge.
I have no authority.
I only know I’m loved.

我沒那權柄,
我只是知道上帝愛我。
