Lyrics

[Verse 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!

[Verse 2]
Vainly they watch his bed, Jesus my Savior,
vainly they seal the dead, Jesus my Lord!

[Refrain]

[Verse 3]
Death cannot keep its prey, Jesus my Savior;
he tore the bars away, Jesus my Lord!
[Refrain]
