WHO AM I?

To live as Christ-like as I can,

No matter where I go, and where I am,

To accept whatever comes along;

Be it good or ill - I will honour Him still,

And do the very best I can, and let it stand

As a testimony of Christ's loving hand,

And then - if failure comes to me,

I will press on, and claim the victory,

To live undaunted and unafraid,

Of past mistakes that I have made,

To be without pretence or sham,

And be exactly who I am,

No matter what men think or say,

Jesus is my strength and stay,

Not just for now, but for all eternity,

And that my friend is good enough for me,

For I am what I am, by the grace of the Lord,

For now and forevermore adored,

So who am I then? I'm the Lord's!
