" Could I Be Called A Christian ?"
(II Corinthian 13:5)

Could I be called a Christian
If everybody knew
The secret thoughts and feelings
Of everything I do
Could they see the likeness
of Christ in me each day
Could they hear Him speaking
In every word I say.

Could I be called a Christian
If my faith I did not show
If I do not go to places
Where the Lord would have me go
If I do not love His truth
If I do not guard His trust
I cherish more than Jesus
My greatest hidden lust.

To obey all He's commanded
To do all that He said
To place no confidence in the flesh
To glory in Christ Jesus
It's He who justifies
To find your life you must lose it
To live you must first die
Let every man examine his own life
"Could I be called a Christian?"

Could I be called a Christian
And believe not his holy word
If I take Him as my Saviour
And refuse Him as my Lord
If I could not love the outcast
And not burdened for the lost
If I fail to deny myself
And each day take up my cross .....
