Author: Eliza Hamilton Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #291 (1986) First Line: Jesus, my Lord, to thee I cry Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my Lord, to thee I cry,
Unless thou help me I must die;
O bring thy free salvation nigh
And take me as I am.
Refrain:
O take me as I am,
O take me as I am,
My only plea Christ died for me;
O take me as I am.
2 Helpless I am and full of guilt,
But yet for me thy blood was spilt,
And thou canst make me what thou wilt
And take me as I am.
3 No preparation can I make,
My best resolves I only break,
Yet save me for thy mercy’s sake
And take me as I am.
4 Behold me, Saviour, at thy feet,
Deal with me as thou seest meet,
Thy work begin, thy work complete,
But take me as I am.
