Page 323 - 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 atoned for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace. 3...

Page 174 - Wilt Thou not yet to me reveal Thy new, unutterable Name ? Tell me, I still beseech Thee, tell : To know it now, resolved I am : Wrestling, I will not let Thee go, Till I thy Name, thy Nature know.

Page 176 - Lame as I am, I take the prey, Hell, earth, and sin, with ease o'ercome; I leap for joy, pursue my way, And as a bounding hart fly home! Through all eternity to prove, Thy Nature and Thy Name is Love I CATHOLIC LOVE.

Page 175 - I know thee, Saviour, who thou art, Jesus, the feeble sinner's friend; Nor wilt thou with the night depart, But stay, and love me to the end; Thy mercies never shall remove, Thy nature and thy name is Love.

Page 246 - The word of God is sure, And never can remove ; We shall in heart be pure, And perfected in love : Rejoice in hope, rejoice with me, We shall from all our sins be free...

Page 207 - O how swiftly didst thou move To save me in the trying hour ! Still protect me with thy love, And shield me with thy power.
