Take Me as I Am {Take Me as I Am TAKE ME AS I AM-Ira David Sankey TAKE ME AS I AM-Rev. John Hart Stockton Take Me as I Am } 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. Chorus Take me as I am, Take me as I am, Lord, I give myself to thee, 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 what thou wilt, And take me as I am. I bow before Thy mercyseat, Behold me, Saviour, at Thy feet; Thy work begin, Thy work complete, And take me as I am. If thou hast work for me to do, Inspire my will, my heart renew; And work both in, and by me too, And take me as I am. And when at last the work is done, The battle fought, the victory won; Still, still my cry shall be alone, Oh, take me as I am.
