Story behind the song
This is just another one of the many evangelistic outreach songs that i've penned over the years of my song writing! Another evangelistic like song from the "Yahweh" album is titled "The Good Life" I always feel the need to invite those who don't know Christ, to come to know him! I am always continuously and excitedly compelled to share the good news of the gospel of salvation with those who are lost and without hope. I vividly remember while writing this song how inspired i was, because i knew this was a special song that was close to the heart beat of God. The very content being evangelism. An invitation to anyone who is thirsty for something more than what they have. To meet the spiritual inner craving thats on the inside of every man, woman, boy, and girl! People are really looking for Jesus, they just don't know it yet.. The 2nd verse in the song is Jesus talking to the person who is in search for love, peace joy and fulfillment which can only be found in him alone! No matter what your past, nationality, background happens to be, even if you feel dirty and rotten like there's no hope for you or that you're not good enough to receive his love, mercy and forgiveness... he says, COME! You don't have to do anything to try and make yourself good enough to approach him... He just wants you to COME AS YOU ARE!!
Lyrics
"Come As You Are" People come as you are come from near and from far people come as you are Jesus is calling you people come as you are he'll give your life a new start Today is the day of salvation let there be no hesitation Jesus is calling don't let this moment pass you by he wants to save your soul and fill you with the holy ghost he'll give you the power to live your life victoriously People come as you are come from near and from far people come as you are Jesus is calling you people come as you are he'll give your life a new start Now if you thirsty come to me i'll give you life more abundantly you've been searching but today your search will end i'm the one you been looking for let me fill the emptiness in your heart i'll give you peace and joy that you've never known People come as you are come from near and from far people come as you are Jesus is calling you people come as you are he'll give your life a new start ( Repeat Chorus ) So come on, People come as you are come from near and from far people come as you are Jesus is calling you people come as you are he'll give your life a new start Come on come as you are Written, Arranged and Produced by Garry Moore for Outreach Productions!
