(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith)
1
Low in the grave He Lay — Jesus, my Savior!
Waiting the coming day — Jesus, my Lord!
CHORUS
Up from the grave He arose, (He arose,)
With a mighty triumph o’er His foes; (He arose,)
He arose a Victor from the dark domain,
And He live forever with His saints to reign:
He arose! (He arose!) He arose! (He arose!)
Hallelujah! Christ arose!
2
Vainly they watch His bed — Jesus my Savior!
Vainly they seal the dead — Jesus my Lord!
CHORUS
3
Death cannot keep his prey — Jesus, my Savior!
He tore the bars away — Jesus, my Lord!
CHORUS
