Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 with repeat Appears in 898 hymnals 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, oh, forgive," they cry,
"Forgive him, oh, 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 My God is 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.
Amen. Topics: Christ Grace, Love and Mercy; Victory Used With Tune: LENOX
