Arise Lyrics: 1 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. Refrain: Arise! Arise! Arise, for thy light is come! Arise! Arise! Arise, for thy light is come! The light of truth To lead thee home: Arise! Oh, arise! For thy light is come! 2 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. [Refrain] 3 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.
