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 Or 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 did 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 If I cherish more than Jesus My greatest hidden lust To obey all He's commanded To do all that He said To be his true disciple To place no confidence in the flesh To glory in Christ Jesus It's He who justifies How to find your life you must lose it To live you first must 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 Savior And then refuse Him as my Lord If I could not love the outcast And am not burdened for the lost If I fail the deny myself And each day take up my cross To obey all He's commanded To do all that He said To be his true disciple To place no confidence in my flesh To glory in Christ Jesus For it's He who justifies How to find your life you must lose it To live you first must die Let every man examine his own life How to find your life you lose it To live you first must die Let every man examine his own life "Could I be called a Christian?" Could I be called a Christian Oh, could I If I refuse Him as the Lord Tell me, could I If I do not guard the truth If I do not guard the trust If everybody knew If everybody knew Could I be called If I love more than Jesus If I deny myself If I take up my cross Then could I Then could I be called a Christian Everyday
