RCCG Hymn 146
Arise, My Soul, Arise
"We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous." - 1 John 2:1
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.
Chorus
Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow.
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.
Five bleeding wounds He bears, Receiv'd on Calvary; They pour effectual pray'r They strongly plead for me; "Forgive him, oh, forgive," they cry, "Nor let that ransom'd sinner die".
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.
My God is reconciled, His pad'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.
