VERSE 1

D                 A7      D 
Just as I am, without one plea,

    A7                 G    D 
But that thy blood was shed for me,

                         G 
And that thou bidd'st me come to thee,

  D              A       D 
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.  

  
VERSE 2

D                 A7      D 
Just as I am, and waiting not 

   A7             G   D 
To rid my soul of one dark blot,

                         G 
To thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot,

  D              A       D 
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.  

  
VERSE 3

D                    A7      D 
Just as I am, though tossed about,

     A7               G    D 
With many a conflict, many a doubt,

                       G 
Fighting and fears within, without,

  D              A       D 
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.  

  
VERSE 4

D                  A7     D 
Just as I am, thou wilt receive,

     A7               G        D 
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;

                    G 
Because thy promise I believe,

  D              A       D 
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
