M. Farningbam
JUST as I am, Thine own to be,
Friend of the young, who lovest me,
To consecrate myself to Thee,
O Jesus Christ, I come.
2
In the glad morning of my day,
My life to give, my vows to pay,
With no reserve, and no delay,
With all my heart, I come.
3
I would live ever in the light,
I would work ever for the right,
I would serve Thee with all my might,
Therefore to Thee I come.
4
Just as I am, young, strong, and free,
To be the best that I can be,
For truth, and righteousness, and Thee,
Lord of my life, I come.
5
And for Thy sake to win renown,
And then to take the victor’s crown,
And at Thy feet to lay it down,
O Master, Lord, I come.
