1. Low in the grave he lay--
Jesus my Savior,
waiting the coming day--
Jesus my Lord!
[Refrain:]
Up from the grave he arose,
with a mighty triumph o'er his foes.
he arose a victor from the dark domain,
and he lives forever with his saints to reign.
He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!
2 Vainly they watch his bed--
Jesus my Savior,
vainly they seal the dead--
Jesus my Lord. (Refrain)
3 Death cannot keep its prey--
Jesus my Savior;
he tore the bars away--
Jesus my Lord. (Refrain)
