Original text and translations

English text

1. Just as I am, without one plea  But that Thy blood was shed for me,  And that Thou bidd’st me come to Thee,  O Lamb of God, 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.

3. 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. 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.

5. Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,  Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve,  Because Thy promise I believe,  O Lamb of God, 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.

7. 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.
