But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidst me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come.
Refrain:
Just as I am, just as I am,
just as I am, I come.
2 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. [Refrain]
3 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. [Refrain]
4 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. [Refrain]
5 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. [Refrain] Topics: The Christian Life Repentance and Forgiveness; Decision; Surrender Scripture: John 6:37 Used With Tune: JUST AS I AM
