The
invalid Charlotte Elliot, was aghast
that anyone
 would
ask about the condition of her soul. But
in May, 1822, that is what the visitor,
Dr. Cesar Malan, asked of her. Later in
the visit she apologized to her guest
and said, “I am sorry for my rudeness.
Actually I would like to come to Christ,
but I do not know how to find him.” Dr.
Malan knew that she had been relying on
her own efforts for her salvation from
sin and so replied, “come just as you
are. Cut the cable; it will take too
long to unloose it. It is small loss
anyway.”
Twelve
years later, in 1834, Charlotte was
unable to help in a fund raising effort
in which her brother was involved. Her
thoughts were of her useless invalid
condition, but then her thoughts turned
to God’s grace. She thought of how God
saved her and keeps her and these
thoughts inspired her to write a poem
about the gospel of pardon, peace, and
heaven; “Just as I Am, Without One
Plea.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just as I am
without one plea,
But that thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidd'st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
Just as I
am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To Thee whose blood can cleanse each
spot,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
Just as I
am, tho' tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
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!
