User-Contributed Transcription "Come unto me".
"Just as I am - without one plea,
But that they blood was shed for me,
And that thou bidst me come to thee -
O Lamb of God, 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,
O Lamb of God, I come!

Just as I am though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
With fears within and wars without -
O Lamb of God, I come!

Just as I am,- poor, wretched, blind;
Light, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need, in thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come!
