Give thanks unto God
who is able and willing
To save to the uttermost
all who draw near;
To send out His light,
their redemption fulfilling,
While His wonderful love
shall dispel ev’ry fear.
Arise! Arise!
Arise, for thy light is come!
Arise! Arise!
Arise, for thy light is come!
The light of truth
{The light of His truth and love}
To lead thee home:
{To lead to thy home above}
Arise! Oh, arise!
For thy light is come!
Sweet hope in the home
of the drunkard hath risen,
Where the darkness of sorrow
too long held its reign;
He hath cast off his fetters,
and burst from his prison,
And the sunshine of joy
fills his heart once again.
Arise! Arise!
Arise, for thy light is come!
Arise! Arise!
Arise, for thy light is come!
The light of truth
{The light of His truth and love}
To lead thee home:
{To lead to thy home above}
Arise! Oh, arise!
For thy light is come!
Then banish the wine-cup,
and seek for a blessing
From Him in whose might
you alone can prevail;
For they who will seek Him,
their weakness confessing,
Shall have strength to resist
all the foes who assail.
Arise! Arise!
Arise, for thy light is come!
Arise! Arise!
Arise, for thy light is come!
The light of truth
{The light of His truth and love}
To lead thee home:
{To lead to thy home above}
Arise! Oh, arise!
For thy light is come!
