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 wondered if my soul was saved or was it lost
Then I realized that salvation was all the grace of Jesus
And we'd all been saved just as he saved that 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
