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!
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, 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, 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!
3
Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt;
Fightings within, and fears without,
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!
4
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!
Sight, riches, healing of the mind;
Yes, all I need, in Thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
5
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!
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
Because Thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
6
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!
Has broken every barrier down;
Now, to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!

When I was 24, back in 1977, I watched a crusade on TV. I gave my life to the Lord watching Reverend Graham. His words from God made my Catholic faith come alive. And the words to this song “just as I am” reminds me that He loves me for myself.

I am a native of Panama now living in CA. The Crusade came to Panama while I was in high school my sister in junior high. We both sang in the choir. My mother, a counselor at the altar. It was an experience I will never forget. I am now 73. When Billy Graham said “Come with those eyes piercings your very soul“ people just came.
It was also the first time I sang “ How Great Thou Art “.
I remember Clift Barrows and George Beverly Shea. Their voices??

This was the hymn that was sung during my baptism. Now, 47 years later, it holds even more meaning for me. I'm a Catholic now, and unfortunately we don't generally sing this song at Mass.

American Evangelist Billy Graham died recently. At the end of his Crusades, this hymn would be played, and the audience would sing the lyrics. I would go on about one of Billy's controversial quotes, but this hymn really should be what Mr, Graham is all about; leading the lost to Christ. The lyrics are so great. Well done, good and faithful Mr. Graham. May Christ welcome Billy into Heaven with loving arms.

I'm always touched when listening to this song. Thank You Jesus for Your unfailing love and for the blood You shed for me on the cross of Calvary.

I so much love this song,
Especially the second stanza "to thee whose blood can cleanse each spot"
Jesus make a faithful servant. The Great Evangelist Billy Graham was one.
Oh Lamb of God, I come...
With tears and an open heart, I come...

If there's one thing and in fact the only thing I ever heard Billy Graham preach, it was the Cross and Salvation.

This song came to mind today as we embark on a Holy Spirit weekend in the Alpha Course. May God draw all His children to peace and freedom with Him. Thank You Jesus!
