  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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, I come.
    Amen.
