Verse 1
Come as you are, that’s how I want you.
Come as you are, feel quite at home,
close to my heart, loved and forgiven.
Come as you are, why stand alone?
Verse 2
No need to fear, love sets no limits.
No need to fear, love never ends.
Don’t run away, shamed and disheartened,
rest in my love, trust me again.
Verse 3
I came to call sinners, not just the virtuous.
I came to bring peace, not to condemn.
Each time you fail to live by my promise,
why do you think I’d love you the less?
Verse 4
Go to my people, sit with the broken,
go to my people, stand in their pain.
Let Love transform the darkest of places,
I will be with you, wherever you go.
Verse 5
Come as you are, that’s how I love you.
Come as you are, trust me again.
Nothing can change the love that I bear you.
All will be well, just come as you are.
