Author: C. Elliott Hymnal: Honey Out of the Rock #100 (1894) First Line: Just as I am, without one plea Refrain First Line: He takes my sin away Lyrics: 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!
Refrain:
He takes my sin away,
He takes my sin away,
Thou spotless Lamb, Thy precious blood
Takes all my sin away.
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! [Refrain]
3 Just as I am, tho’ toss’d about
With many a conflict many a doubt;
Fightings within, and foes without,
O Lamb of God, I come! [Refrain]
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! [Refrain]
5 Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve,
Because Thy promise, I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come! [Refrain]
6 Just as I am, Thy love, unknown,
Has broken ev’ry barrier down;
Now to be Thine, and Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Just as I am, without one plea]
