Nichole Nordeman Lyrics
"Just As I Am"

I wondered how to come to You, I did not dare believe it true
That You regard the orphaned ones, beloved daughters, worthy sons
The broken and the barren too, I heard could find a rest in You
What kind of love in injury's place
Would leave instead the stain of grace?
So I come in sorrow and I come in shame, I come to the cross with my pain

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...

The pardon that I found from sin spilled out from where the nails went in
My heart will evermore proclaim I haven't lived until that day
I know there is a crown for me beyond where mortal eyes can see
And I don't nod to any man, but to offer me just as I am
I come rejoicing with hands held high, I come singing words of new life...

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...
