"Take Me as I Am" is a song written by Bob DiPiero and Karen Staley, and recorded by American country music artist Faith Hill. It was released in September 1994 as the fourth and final single and title track from her album of the same name.

Critical reception[edit]

Larry Flick from Billboard wrote, "Cleanup single from Hill's smash debut takes full advantage of her sunny style and impressive vocal range. Sure to please radio, this single should set the stage for her upcoming sophomore effort."[1]
