Smalltown Poets Lyrics
"Call Me Christian"

Sometimes it's sink or swim
And I've been treading water.
I should have expected the flood,
But floating never has been easy for me.
You caught me carefree
And you called me like you saw me:
A sinner.
And I said five wits, looks and strength,
I don't think are much in the way of companions
And good deeds couldn't pay my account.
Not kinsmen nor knowledge stand
The trial of every man,
Don't call me every man.

Chorus:
Call me Christian x 4

I've looked on the evergreen,
And I've seen it constantly grow and show us life,
And I want to live eternally;
I want to be an imitation of Christ
I want to be a little Christ

Chorus

As a boy I'd put my steps
In my bigger brother's tracks,
To match his stride
And just like that I follow Jesus.
Jesus is my guide...

Chorus
