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 I come
Just as I am though tossed about
With all my conflict all my doubt
Fightings and fears within without
Oh Lamb of God I come I come
Jesus take all of me
I run to You I run to You
I lay everything at Your feet
Let my life be Yours
Just as I am Thou wilt receive
Wilt welcome pardon cleanse relieve
Because Thy promises I believe
O Lamb of God I come I come
Just a I am Thy love unknown
Has broken every barrier down
Now to be Thine yes Thine alone
O Lamb of God I come I come
