Just As I Am

Scripture: John 1:29







              1. Just as I am, without one plea,
                But that Thy blood was shed for me,
                And that Thou bidst me come to Thee,
                O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
              2. 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.
              3. Just as I am, though tossed about
                With many a conflict, many a doubt,
                Fightings and fears within, without,
                O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
              4. 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.
              5. 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.
              6. Just as I am, Thy love unknown
                Hath broken every barrier down;
                Now, to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
                O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
