Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8.8 Appears in 900 hymnals Topics: Forgiveness of Sins Redemption and Salvation Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, arise;
shake off thy guilty fears;
the bleeding sacrifice
in my behalf appears:
Before the throne my Surety stands,
before the throne my Surety stands;
my name is written on His hands.
2 He ever lives above,
for me to intercede;
His all-redeeming love,
His precious blood to plead:
His blood atoned for all our race,
His blood atoned for all our race,
and sprinkles now the throne of grace.
3 Five bleeding wounds He bears,
received on Calvary;
they pour effectual prayers,
they strongly speak for me:
"Forgive him, O forgive," they cry,
"Forgive him, O forgive," they cry,
"Nor let that ransomed sinner die!"
4 The Father hears Him pray,
His dear Anointed One;
He cannot turn away
the presence of His Son:
His Spirit answers to the blood,
His Spirit answers to the blood,
and tells me I am born of God.
5 To God I'm reconciled,
His pard’ning voice I hear;
He owns me for His child;
I can no longer fear:
With confidence I now draw nigh,
with confidence I now draw nigh,
and "Father, Abba, Father," cry. Scripture: Romans 8:14-27 Used With Tune: LENOX
