LyicsJUST as I am, without one plea,
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bid'st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot--
To Thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
Just as I am, though toss'd about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
With fears within, and foes without--
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind--
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need, in Thee to find--
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome pardon, cleanse, relieve;
Because Thy promise I believe--
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
Just as I am--Thy love, unknown,
Has broken every barrier down;
Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
