about

Here we take the hymn (by William Batchelder Bradbury) gently through variations (decorations), but keeping the harmony mainly in accordance with the first verse.
We give each instrument the main melody in turn.
In verse three the mode changes to the relative minor and for verse four the mode returns to major while the 1st clarinet provides a descant.

lyrics

1 Just as I am, without one plea,
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bid’st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
2
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!
3
Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt;
Fightings within, and fears without,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
