hymnal 214 1 Jesus, my Lord, to Thee I cry; Unless Thou help me I must die; Oh, bring Thy free salvation nigh, and take me as I am. And take me as I am, and take me as I am My only plea Christ died for me! Oh, take me as I am. 2 Helpless I am, and full of guilt; but yet for me Thy blood was split, And Thou canst make me what Thou wilt, and take me as I am. And take me as I am, and take me as I am My only plea Christ died for me! Oh, take me as I am. 3 No preparation can I make, my best resolves I only break, Yet save me for Thine own name's sake, and take me as I am. And take me as I am, and take me as I am My only plea Christ died for me! Oh, take me as I am. 4 Behold me, Savior, at Thy feet, deal with me as Thou seeest meet; Thy work begin, Thy work complete, and take me as I am. And take me as I am, and take me as I am, my only plea Christ died for me! Oh, take me as I am.
