Jesus, my Lord, to Thee I cry; Unless Thou save 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! |

Helpless I am, and full of guilt; But yet for me Thy blood was spilt, And Thou canst make me what Thou wilt, And take me as I am. |

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. |

Behold me, Savior, at Thy feet, Deal with me as Thou seest meet; Thy work begin, Thy work complete, But take me as I am. |

I see exactly myself in the picture this song painted and my hope is that precious and spotless Blood that was shed. That is my only hope and with this hope I got some courage that I can still push a little more further, and I can still get to the promise. With this hope I'm not giving up yet on myself, because he has absolute knowledge of how it feels whenever I fall along the way, I can hear him say get up and move on, I shed my blood for you!

Helpless I am Lord, and full of guilt, But yet for me Thy blood was spilt, And thou canst make me what thou wilt, And take me as I am.
No Preparation can I make, My best resolves I only break, Yet save me for thine own Name sake, and Take me as I am.

This is me helpless and full of guilt. Daily I made promises that I will not allow my eyes take me astray but after a while I break. If it is by my own righteousness I can not measure up to You Lord but glory be to God it is with Your righteousness. Yet Lord take me as I am.
Thou canst make me as thou wilt. I can't go on like this, work in me to grow and overcome.

"Whom have I on earth, beside Thee? Who in Heaven, but Thee"? You ignore my transgressions and forgive my iniquities. For my sake, you were shamed and crucified on the cross, and what do I give you in return? Nothing; at best, I break all my best resolves, but you still love me unconditionally. Sweet Jesus, please "take me as I am" lest I perish.

I woke up this morning with a line of the lyrics of this hymn - My only plea is CHRIST died for me. So I went for one of the leaflet that I have at home from one of the retreats that I have attended in the past organised by Peace House Gboko Nigeria Western Zone. I found the song there but I needed the right tune for it so I went into the search engine to bring it up.
I am richly blessed by this song today. As I spend this day in the presence of my Maker alone seeking a way forward not by my own righteousness but by that blood shed for me by my Saviour CHRIST Jesus .

O dear Lord Jesus, if you refuse to help me! I'm finished.

This is more than a song but a prayer from the heart of a believer who longs for a deep revival and encounter with God. Oh that I will constantly receive Your help for my life daily.

My Father and my Creator, You knew me before I was born. You have a purpose in my life. Behold me, Savoir at Thy feet, deal with me as Thou seest me, Thy work begin, Thy work complete, Father take me as I am!
