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!
To rid my soul of one dark blot;
To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
With many a conflict, many a doubt;
Fightings within, and fears without,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
Sight, riches, healing of the mind;
Yes, all I need, in Thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
Because Thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
Has broken every barrier down;
Now, to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!

Since the quarantine began, I’ve been taking Communion in my home as a way to feel united with God and His believers even though we’re in solitude. And each time I drink from the cup, this hymn springs to mind. I haven’t sung in a while but the words are so compelling, they can’t be contained. And the very notion that my/our only Plea is the Blood of Christ...! What amazing insights and Scripture-filled reminders of the Goodness of our God in six verses of one hymn!

In Rev 3, the Lord spoke to the church in Laodicea about how to overcome. We have to realize what we are —it says poor, wretched, blind in this song. And what we need to buy from Him —gold refined by fire to be rich, white garments to be clothed, and eye salve that we could see. And He is at the door knocking! We just need to open to Him, to buy from Him (without money and without price as it says in Isa 55) and we will be overcomers who sit with him on his throne! This song is so rich and sweet. Our fellowship in the home meeting tonight, on Rev 3 and with this hymn, was so enjoyable! Praise the Lord!

Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind;
Sight, riches, healing of the mind;
Yes, all I need, in Thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!

I just watched an 1985 Billy Graham crusade from Sheffield England . They always finish with this song as the people come up to accept the saviour and it brings me tears of joy every time .

The song reminds me that the only plea I have before God, is the power of the precious blood shed for me at Calvary. It's not my ministry of several decades or my good works. What a great hymn

It is Good Friday and as COVID 19 wreaks havoc around the globe, this timeless hymn is a source of comfort many who are suffering or living in fear. To God be the glory!
