1 Low in the grave he lay—-
Jesus, my Saviour,
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 for ever with his saints to reign.
He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!
2 Vainly they watch his bed—-
Jesus, my Saviour;
Vainly they seal the dead—-
Jesus, my Lord. (Refrain)
3 Death cannot keep his prey—-
Jesus, my Saviour;
He tore the bars away—-
Jesus, my Lord. (Refrain)
