Just As I AM
Just as I am, without
one plea,
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidd'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, tho'
tossed about,
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and
fears with-in, with-out,
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!
~Charlotte Elliott ~William B. Bradbury
