Fake Christian - 1

There are moments When I find myself wishing Yearning to be something I am not Someone who serves Him With never a doubt or sin Someone who knows Him Better than they know themselves I wish I could say, my friend, That I am a perfect Saint A Christian so flawless and faultless That I deserved the Christian name I can’t say that, my friend For I have faults and flaws I’m wrong sometimes and I don’t always Know the way to go The words to say or the Right from the wrong I wish I could say, my friend That I’m someone who always prays The way that God can bless With never a selfish desire or hope I can’t say that, though There are times I pray for selfish gain Times when I don’t pray for the ones That deserve the prayers the most And times I don’t seek solace In His amazing grace There are moments When I find myself longing To be someone that I can be proud of Someone who is totally selfless Self-sacrificing like the Savior The One I serve in spite of the fact That I’m so inadequate and lacking When it comes to being a Christian Still, I pray… to become like Jesus The One I know can take this clay I am And create someone worthy of His love I’m not a fake Christian But I am a Christian who knows I’m not perfect – even though I want to be More like my Savior Jesus, who died for me!
