I Will Arise and Go to Jesus

I WILL ARISE AND GO TO JESUS

Composed by Joseph Hart in 1759, this hymn, also known as "Come, Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy" has been used for many years as a closing hymn or as a hymn of invitation used during the altar call in Christian churches. The text is as follows:

Come, ye sinners, poor and needy, weak and wounded, sick and sore;

Jesus ready stands to save you, full of pity, love and power.

I will arise and go to Jesus; he will embrace me in his arms;

in the arms of my dear Savior, O there are ten thousand charms.
