Arise, my soul, arise, (Isa 60:1, Col 3:1)
shake off your guilty fears; (Psalm 34:4)
The bleeding sacrifice, (1 Cor 5:7)
in my behalf appears; (Heb 9:24)
Before the throne my Surety stands,
Before the throne my Surety stands, (Rev 5:6)
My name is written on His hands. (Isa 49:16)
CHORUS:
Arise, arise, arise
Arise, my soul, arise.
Arise, arise, arise
Arise, my soul, arise. (Col 3:1)
Shake off your guilty fears and rise (Psalm 34:4)
He ever lives above,
for me to intercede; (Heb 7:25, Rom 8:34)
His all redeeming love,
His precious blood, to plead; (1 Peter 1:19)
His blood atoned for every race,
His blood atoned for every race, (Rom 5:11, 1 Tim 2:6)
And sprinkles now the throne of grace. (Heb 12:24, Heb 4:16)

Five bleeding wounds He bears;
received on Calvary; (Luke 23:33)
They pour effectual prayers;
they strongly plead for me: (Lam 3:58, Heb 12:24)
“Forgive him, O forgive” they cry,
“Forgive him, O forgive” they cry, (Luke 23:34)

My God is reconciled; (Rom 5:10)
His pardoning voice I hear;
He owns me for His child;
I can no longer fear (Gal 3:26, Rom 8:15)
With confidence I now draw nigh,
With confidence I now draw nigh, (Eph 3:12, Heb 7:19)
And “Father, Abba, Father” cry. (Rom 8:15, Gal 4:6)
