<\/P>
\n

I’m dressing up like Christ today<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

I’m walking out the door<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

I don’t quite fit inside his skin<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

I’m lacking so much more<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

<\/P>
\n

Outside you see this humble soul<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

That cares and gives and loves<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

Inside, alas, so much is bad<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

It’s stained, it takes and shoves<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

<\/P>
\n

Each day I put this costume on<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

To do the things He’d do<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

I walk the walk, I talk the talk<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

Yet, things still show right through<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

<\/P>
\n

But every day I put him on,<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

I feel a bit more sure,<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

As passes time, the thing I find<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

His being covers more<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

<\/P>
\n

I wonder if I shrink to fit<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

The skin he let me wear<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

Or if it grows to cover those<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

Places that I’m so bare<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

<\/P>
\n

But what I’ve found, as time winds down<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

My image shines so bright<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

For by his power, in my last hour<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

He seals me with his might.<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

<\/P>
\n

Less of me, and more of Christ!<\/SPAN> <\/P>
\n

<\/P>
