as I Am
The doctor stopped his carriage at the An
gelica n parsonage in Brighton, England. But
there was nothing in his medicine kit to help the
paralyzed sister of the Rev. Henry V. Elliott. He
was calling to offer his usual word of cheer
and to leave one otf the little leaflets he had
bought to distribute among his shut-in patients.
The leaflets were selling all over England, he
said, and were being translated into many for
eign languages. And for a good cause, too.
Someone had written a poem to help finance the
building of a school for children of poor clergy
men. It said so at the top of the page. . . .
“Sold for the benefit of St. Margaret’s Hall,
Brighton.” Under that, the line, “Him that
cometh to me I will in no wise cast out” Then
came the six-verse poem.
Tears welled in Charlotte Elliott’s eyes as she
read the lines. Her memory went back to the
Just as I am, without one plea,
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidd'st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I cornel I cornel
Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt.
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come! I cornel
day hpr brother had organized a bazaar to start
his school Everybody in town had helped.
That is, everybody except her ... a 46-year-old
epinster who could hardly drag about the room:-
Lonely and helpless, she had written a poem
to console other invalids. She had sent it to
a publisher in the hope that from its sale she
could contribute a few shillings to her brother’s
schooL And now, her little poem was bringing
in more revenue than all the bazaars the town
could give.
The doctor was pleased with his call. He had
left his patient so happy that she was crying.
The following year Charlotte Elliott pub
lished a whole book of hymns and she wrote
rrany another before she died at the age' of
82. Perhaps the good doctor might have wept
a little himself that day in 1834 had he known
it was his patient who had written. . . .
Just os I am—poor, wretched, blind;

Yea, all I need In Thee to find,

there were demonstrations against
mixed classes at two Washington
