Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2,238 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Just as I am, without one plea, But that Thy blood was shed for me, And that Thou bid'st me come to Thee, O Lamb of God, I come, I come. 2 Just as I am, and waiting not To rid myself of one dark blot, To Thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot, O Lamb of God, I come, I come. 3 Just as I am, though tossed about With many a conflict, many a doubt, Fightings and fears within, without, O Lamb of God, I come, I come. 4 Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind; Sight, riches, healing of the mind, Yea, all I need, in Thee to find, O Lamb of God, I come, I come. 5 Just as I am, Thou wilt receive, Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve; Because Thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come, I come. 6 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, I come.

We now commit unto the grave

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1 We now commit unto the grave This form, whereof no doubt we have That it shall rise again that day, In glorious triumph o'er decay. 2 To earth again we here entrust What came from dust, and turns to dust, And from the dust again shall rise, When the last trumpet fills the skies. 3 His soul forever lives in God, Who grace and pardon hath bestowed, Who through His Son redeemed him here From bonds of death, and sin, and fear. 4 His trials and his griefs are past, A blessed end is his at last; Christ's yoke he bore and did His will, And though he died, he liveth still. 5 He lives where none do mourn and weep; And calmly shall this body sleep, Till God shall death himself destroy, And raise it unto glorious joy. 6 He suffered pain and grief below; Christ heals him now from all his woe; For him hath endless joy begun; He shines in glory like the sun. 7 Then let us leave him to his rest, And homeward turn, for he is blest; And may we all our souls prepare, That when death comes, we meet him there.
