#138: Christ Arose

(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
