Just as I am, without one plea
1) 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!
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 cornel I come!
3) Just as I am, tho' 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 - thou wilt receive,
wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
because thy promise I believe,
o Lamb of God, I come! I come!
5) Just as I am! Thy love unknown
has broken ev'ry barrier down;
now to be thine, yea, thine alone,
o Lamb of God, I come! I come!
Ich will dir danken! 217
