Come As You Are

Come as you are means
broken and bowed down
Come as you are means
being willing to stand out from the crowd

that's holding you back
that's holding you in
come as you are
don't wait to begin

A new life before you
stare your limitations in the face
If you will just come as you are
God will take over the race

He will set you on your path
He will let you know which way to go
He will hold your hand
He will be the one who shows

you how to go forward
you where to fit in
you where to stand up
you where to sit and

you where to get up
you where to back down
Come as you are
even while wearing a frown

It doesn't matter the sin you are in
It doesn't matter how bad off you think you are
It doesn't matter if you've crossed your friend
It doesn't matter if you're in the bar

Come as you are is what He's saying
Come as you are is what He means
Come as you are with no delaying
Come as you are is just what it seems

It's an invitation to His daughters
It's an invitation to His sons
It's an invitation from the Father
It's an invitation to become one

Come as you are to God the Father
Come as you are and He will touch you
Come as you are into His presence
Come as you are because He wants to

Restore your broken heart
He wants to restore your broken home
He longs to restore your failing health
God wants to restore you to His home

Come as you are when you find yourself
Stumbling and unsure of what to do
Come as you are to God the Father
And He will transform you

Broken and bowed down 
is where you were, this much is true
But His love, His touch, His Spirit
will be what makes you new.
