当我说我是基督徒时 (诗)

When I say I am Christian,
I am not shouting I am saved
I am whispering I get lost,
That is why I choose this way.
当我说我是基督徒时,
我不是在叫喊着我是得救的,
而是在低声说, 我曾经迷失过,
所以我选择了这条路.

When I say I am Christian,
I don't speak of this with pride.
I am confessing that I stumble
And need someone to be my guide
当我说我是基督徒时,
并不是因为我比你高一等,
而是承认我一直在蹒跚而行,
所以我需要一位生命的向导.

When I say I am Christian,
I am not trying to be strong.
I am professing that I am weak,
And pray for strength to carry on.
当我说我是基督徒时,
我并不是在显示自己很强壮,
而是在承认自己的软弱,
并祷告寻求继续前进的道路.

When I say I am Christian,
I am not bragging of success.
I am admitting I have failed,
And can not ever pay the debt.
当我说我是基督徒时,
我并不是在吹嘘自己的成功,
而是承认自己的失败,
而且没有能力偿还自己所背负的债.

When I say I am Christian,
I am not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws is too visible,
But God believes I'm worth it.
当我说我是基督徒时,
我并不是在宣称自己是完美的,
而是让你看到我生命的暇疵是这么的明显,
但神相信我是有价值的.

When I say I am Christian,
I still feel the sting of pain,
I have my share of heartaches,
Which is why I seek his name
当我说我是基督徒时,
我还是会痛如针刺般,
但我有神来分担我的心痛
所以我会继续寻求祂的面.

When I say I am Christian,
I do not wish to judge.
I have no authority,
I only know I am loved.
当我说我是基督徒时,
我并不是在批评你,
因为我没有那样的权柄,
我只知道我是被爱着的.
