Jesus, sweet Jesus You love me just as I am Jesus, sweet Jesus I've been washed in the blood of the lamb The church wants to hear my confession It's something they all want to see But Lord, I'm only a sinner (just a sinner) And myself is all I can be Jesus, sweet Jesus You love me just as I am Jesus, sweet Jesus I've been washed in the blood of the lamb As a boy I was always afraid to go and kneel down at the altar call And over the years I've wondered if my soul was saved or was just lost Then I realized that salvation was all the grace of Jesus And we'd all been saved just as he saved the thief on the cross Jesus, sweet Jesus You love me just as I am Jesus, sweet Jesus I was washed in the blood of the lamb.
