This morning, I found myself humming to the tune of this hymn and only then did I realize that it is not just a song but a very inspiring and ‘healing’ hymn. The words tell me who we are and not who we want to be….celebrity, whitenicious, president, Forbes richest, Billionaire heir/heiress…….God promised us that if we turn away from sin, though our hearts are as dark as scarlet, he’ll make us as white as snow…and not some ‘temporary concoctions’ that you’ll have to buy with your money and will turn around to hurt you….God’s gift are free, only if you ask….you shall receive.
Just as I am, without one plea,
but that thy blood was shed for me
and that thou bidst me come to thee
oh Lamb of God I come I come
Just as I am, and waiting not
to rid my soul of one dark blot
to thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot
Oh Lamb of God I come, I come
Just as I am though tossed about,
with many a conflict, many a doubt
fightings and fears within, without,
Oh Lamb of God I come I come
Just as I am, poor wretched, blind,
sight, riches, healing of the mind
yea all I need, in thee to find
Oh Lamb of God I come I come
Just as ai am, Thou wilt receive,
wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve
Because thy promise I believe
Oh Lamb of God I come, I come
Just as I am thy love unknown
has broken every barrier down
now to be thine yea thine alone,
oh Lamb of God I come I come
Just as I am, of that free love
the breadth, length, depth
and height to prove
here for a season, then above,
oh Lamb of God I come I come
Amen.
