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, 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,
yea, all I need, in thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come.
4 Just as I am, thou wilt receive,
wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve:
because thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come.
5 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.
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. Topics: Holy Communion; Epiphany II Year B; Proper 9 Year A; Proper 19 Year A; Proper 26 Year C Scripture: 2 Corinthians 7:5 Used With Tune: SAFFRON WALDEN
