JUST as I am—without one plea
   But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidst me come to Thee,
    O Lamb of God, 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 come.
 
3  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.
 
4  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.
 
5  Just as I am—Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve:
Because Thy promise I believe,
    O Lamb of God, I come.
 
6  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.
 
7  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.
 
Charlotte Elliott, 1789-1871
