What is the background music choir sings when Billy Graham asks people to come down front and accept Jesus?

The choir would sing "Just As I Am."

During Billy Graham's crusades, there would often be a call to repentance during which the choir would sing "Just As I Am." The lyrics go as follows:

Just as I am, without one plea

But that thy blood was shed for me,

And that thou bidst me come to thee,

O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

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.

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 come.

Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind;

Sight, riches, healing of the mind,

Yea, all I need, in thee to find,

O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, thou wilt receive,

Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;

Because thy promise I believe,

O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, (yes, just as I am)

Thy love unknown has drawn me near,

My heart is thine forever.

O Lamb of God, I come, (I come) I come.
