'Just as I am' (hymn) written by Charlotte Elliott

Just 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!


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!


Just as I am, though toss'd about,

With many a conflict, many a doubt,

Fightings and fears within, without,

O Lamb of God, 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!


Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,

Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;

Because Thy promise I believe,

O Lamb of God, 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!


Just as I am, of that free love,

The breadth, length, depth, and height to prove,

Here for a season, then above,'

O Lamb of God, I come!
