I Will Arise and Go to My Father

Author: Anna B. Russell Hymnal: The Voice of Thanksgiving No. 3 #20 (1921) First Line: “I will arise and go to my Father” Refrain First Line: In the presence of angels, there’s joy, great joy Lyrics: 1 “I will arise and go to my Father,” Tho’ I’m unworthy the name of a son; Yea, He hath loved and redeemed me in Jesus, But form my home I have run. Refrain: In the presence of angels, there’s joy, great joy, When a wandering one cometh home, When the prodigal seeketh his Father’s house, No more from His presence to roam. 2 “I will arise and go to my Father,” Servant I’ll be unto Him from today, Bread He has plenty, then why need I hunger, Feeding on husks far away? [Refrain] 3 “I will arise and go to my Father,” I will confess and acknowledge my sin, He will forgive and renew me in Jesus, Cleanse me without and within. [Refrain] 4 “I will arise and go to my Father,” Wandering soul, shall not this be your cry? Go like the prodigal son to his father, Go, for God bids thee draw nigh. [Refrain] Topics: Faith; Repentance Tune Title: [“I will arise and go to my Father”]
