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!

After I read psalm 51 this hymn came to my mind and I searched for it to surrender myself again to my Father. And glad I did because JESUS CHRIST came through for me. Thank You LORD JESUS CHRIST.

This morning as I was looking for the lyrics of this great hymn, feeling so needy for my El Shaddai. The words of Just As I Am ministered to be... poor, wretched, blind... yes I am. I have nothing without Him. I am nothing without Him. He gives everything. And then I began to read all these beautiful comments of people all across this earth. Hungry for Jesus. Coming, running into His presence, falling on their knees to worship and adore Him. I was so moved, seeing this "great multitude , that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb." Rev. 7:9
We're not alone. Together we come. Just as we are. And He Gives... He gives us the robe of white as praise flow from our hearts and we are healed by the Glory of God. For He is the Sun of Righteousness that rises to bring healing to the nations. " the nations will walk by His Light and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor to Him" rev. 21:24
Amen. Thank you to all who have written here.

This very familiar hymn has a beautiful story attached to it. 200 years ago, Charlotte Elliott was a gifted artist and writer living in England. A serious illnesses however, affected her feet, and she became crippled and depressed, spending the following decades feeling useless to anyone and wrestling with her pain and despondency. Sometime later, a pastor friend from Switzerland paid her visit to encourage her. She dismissed him, then later felt guilty about it. Deciding she needed to get her personal relationship with Christ in order, she went to apologize to the pastor. She confessed that she wanted to get herself right with God, but had too many barriers between her and the Lord and she had to clean up her life first. The pastor replied, “just come as you are. ” Those words remained with her, and more than a decade later, the advice that had allowed her to come to the Lord as she was, were penned in a simple but powerful hymn about trusting Jesus and His redemptive work. It has inspired many people to repent and believe in the Gospel. Billy Graham used it in his crusades to call many-a-sinner to come forward and give their lives to Christ and find forgiveness in Him.
