This song has alot of religous connotations - the opening refrence to number 99, 'just as I am' is refering to the hymn which goes by the same name. Johnny Cash made this hymn popular in 1999 by using it in a song which also goes by the same name. Charlotte Elliot wrote this song about how to find salvation through Christ. It has been used by many as the call to the altar at the close of services, as it brings a quiet simple message of sin, forgiveness, and salvation to all that listen. An elderly man asked Charlotte Elliott if she were a Christian; she felt insulted, and told him to mind his own affairs. But after the man left, she could not get the question off her mind, and she went back to ask the man how to find Christ. He told her to come just as she was. She did, and wrote the beautiful song, "Just As I Am." - By B. A. Scherr She is reputed to have written the hymn whilst resting under the shade of a tree at the site of a property which was being built by her brother Reverend Henry Venn Elliott as a school for the daughters of impoverished clergymen. That explains the little boy/girl who reads. find the hymn and listen at http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/j/u/justasam.htm COME ON PEOPLE, THINK OUTSIDE OF THE BOX |
