Just as I am without one plea
But that thy blood was shed for me 
And that thou bidd'st me come to thee 
Of Lamb of God I come,I come..

1st verse
The service is nearing an end
The choir is singing "Just as I am"
And now as the old song is played
People at the altar are kneeling down to pray
Some are finding mercy 
Forgiveness for their sins
Some are fighting battles
and they're struggling to win
The time is come to give them to the Lord
That's what this altar is for

Chorus
That's what this altar is for 
You don't have to carry those burdens any more
There's a light in the darkness 
There's a love that's true
And Jesus is waiting 
He is waiting here for you 
Go quickly now before they close the door
That's what this altar is for

2nd verse
A father is praying with his son
Mother kneels beside them 
Thanking God they've come
An old man is standing there in tears 
Giving up a part of him that he's held back for years
Hearts are being broken 
Lives are being changed 
Those who call upon Him they will never be the same 
The time has come to give into the Lord
That's what this altar is for

Repeat chorus 1x

Tag:
Go quickly now before they close the door
And you can give your burdens to the Lord
That's what this altar is for....
