Arise

Chorus

Arise, my soul, arise;

Arise, my soul, arise (2X)

Arise, my soul, arise; shake off thy guilty fears;

The bleeding sacrifice in my behalf appears:

Before the throne my surety stands, (2X)

My name is written on His hands. (2X)

Chorus

He ever lives above, for me to intercede;

His all redeeming love,

His precious blood, to plead:

His blood atoned for every race, (2X)

And sprinkles now the throne of grace. (2X)

Chorus

Five bleeding wounds He bears;

received on Calvary;

They pour effectual prayers;

they strongly plead for me:

“Forgive him, O forgive,” they cry, (2X)

“Nor let that ransomed sinner die!” (2X)

Chorus

The Father hears Him pray,

His dear anointed One;

He cannot turn away,

the presence of His Son;

His Spirit answers to the blood, (2X)

And tells me I am born of God. (2X)

Chorus

My God is reconciled;

His pardoning voice I hear;

He owns me for His child; I can no longer fear:

With confidence I now draw nigh, (2X)

And “Father, Abba, Father,” cry. (2X)
