(SECOND TUNE)

ST. CRISPIN. (8.8.8 6.) (Symbol missingsymbol characters) = 84.


George Job Elvey (1816-1893).

Just as I am—thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
Because thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come!

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!

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!
