Praise for the Lord (Expanded Edition) ‎#46

46. Arise, My Soul, Arise

1 Arise, my soul, arise,
Shake off thy guilty fears;
The bleeding Sacrifice
In thy behalf appears;
Before the throne my Surety stands,
My name is written on His hands,
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,
And sprinkles now the throne of grace,
And sprinkles now the throne of grace.

3 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,
And "Father, Abba Father," cry,
And "Father, Abba, Father" cry.

Coda:
His Spirit answers to the blood,
And tells me I am born of God,
And tells me I am born of God.
