Together in Song ‎#584a

584a. Just as I am, without one plea

1 Just as I am, without one plea
but that your blood was shed for me,
and that you would my Saviour be,
O Lamb of God, 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.

3 Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind -
sight, riches, healing of the mind,
yes, all I need, in you to find,
O Lamb of God, I come.

4 Just as I am, you will receive,
will welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
because your promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come.

5 Just as I am - your love unknown
has broken every barrier down
now to be your, and yours alone,
O Lamb of God, I come.

6 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.
