Offertory Anthem    I will arise   arr. Robert Shaw, Alice Parker

I will arise and go to Jesus. He will embrace me in His arms.
In the arms of my dear Savior, oh! there are ten thousand charms.
Teach me some melodious sonnet sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise the mount, I’m fixed upon it, mount of Thy redeeming love.
Come, thou fount of ev’ry blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy grace.
Streams of mercy never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise.
I will arise and go to Jesus. He will embrace me in His arms.
In the arms of my dear Savior, oh! there are ten thousand charms.

Text: Psalm 42: 1-3

Like as the hart desireth the waterbrooks,
so longeth my soul after thee, O God.
My soul is athirst for God,
yea, even for the living God.
When shall I come to appear before the presence of God?
My tears have been my meat day and night,
while they daily say unto me,
“Where is now thy God?”
