1     Arise, my soul, arise!
       Shake off thy guilty fears;
       The bleeding Sacrifice
       In my behalf appears.
    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 was shed 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,
    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,
    And tells me I am born of God.
 
 
 5     To God I'm reconciled,
       His pardoning 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.
