Though I am Born Again . . .

Though I am born again,
I still look the same . . .
the only difference is
I am baptized in His name.

I know I am still a sinner,
but I'm trying hard not to be
and I am sure that my faults
you still can see in me.

I am not yet perfect,
but I am learning every day
how to live like Jesus
and to follow His righteous way.

I know you don't believe,
but I haven't a single doubt
and I trust that my Lord
will work all things out.

I've got a lot of changing,
that I know I need to do
and I believe that my Savior
will help me see them through.

I've made many choices,
that I am not proud of
but I am counting on His mercy
and trusting in His love.

I know when you look at me,
I don't look any different
but I know somethings new
and in Jesus I am confident.

All I am asking you,
is to give me some more time
before you begin to judge me
and condemn me for my crime.

Though I am born again,
I am not without blame
but the day I accepted Jesus
He took with Him my shame!

2 Corinthians 5:17
King James Version

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he
is a new creature: old things are
passed away; behold, "all things are
become new."
