1. Just as I am without one plea, 
             E                             D          A 
    but that Thy blood was shed for me, 
                                           D 
    and that thou bid'st me come to Thee, 
          A                      E             A 
    oh lamb of God, I come,     I come. 

            A                E             A 
2. Just as I am so tossed about, 
               E                       D          A 
    with many a conflict, many a doubt, 
                                        D 
    fightings and fears within without, 
          A                      E             A 
    oh lamb of God, I come,     I come. 

            A                     E       A 
3. Just as I am Thou wilt receive, 
             E                              D            A 
    will dwell come pardon, cleanse relieve, 
                                        D 
    because you promise, I believe, 
          A                      E             A 
    oh lamb of God, I come,     I come.
