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. 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.
Again the boiled down message of these verses is “Just as I
am Lord, I come”. Whether poor or rich; in confusion or sobriety, in darkness
or with clarity - in whatever state we find ourselves, not only may we come to
God but we MUST come to Him. When all is well, we come. When circumstances are
bleak, we come. And when we come to Him, He receives us… He receives us and He welcomes
us. But not only that! He also forgives and purifies us. He gives us rest from
that which burdens us. And He does all of this because we have put our faith in
Him.
All
those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never
drive away. John 6:37
He
makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters, He
refreshes my soul. Psalm 23:2&3a
