Just as I am - I Come Broken
Just as I am without one plea but that Thy blood was shed for me
And that Thou bidst me come to Thee, O 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, O Lamb of God I come, I come.
Chorus:
I come broken to be mended. I come wounded to be healed.
I come des'prate to be rescued. I come empty to be filled.
I come guilty to be pardoned, by the blood of Christ, the Lamb,
And I'm welcomed with open arms, praise God, just as I am.
Just as I am I would be lost, but mercy and grace my freedom bought.
And now to glory in Your cross, O Lamb of God I come, I come.
Chorus:
I come broken to be mended. I come wounded to be healed.
I come des'prate to be rescued. I come empty to be filled.
I come guilty to be pardoned, by the blood of Christ, the Lamb.
And I'm welcomed with open arms, praise God, just as I am.
I come broken to be mended. I come wounded to be healed.
I come des'prate to be rescued. I come empty to be filled.
I come guilty to be pardoned, by the blood of Christ, the Lamb.
And I'm welcomed with open arms, praise God, just as I am.
Praise God, just as I am.

I heard my baby singing this song the other day while he played. And my throat felt tight.
It's a favourite of mine.
Beautiful words and music. I too love this song.
ReplyDeleteAwww... I love hearing children sing!!
ReplyDeleteI want to say something, but I'm FEELING it more than words say!
ReplyDelete♥
ReplyDeleteYes, love love this song...
ReplyDeleteWhere is this song? I would like it!
ReplyDeleteI'll WhatsApp it to you.. not sure where to find it in a book.
DeleteI just love that song also!
ReplyDeleteand nothing quite like hearing a little one sing it with no clue whatsoever what it really means. Or perhaps they do - those fresh from God & innocent & haven't forgotten yet...
ReplyDeleteYep I agree with you Jane.
ReplyDeleteI love this song too. So beautiful. And that bit about Wyatt gives me a little ache in my chest.
