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 his prey--
Jesus, my Savior;
he tore the bars away--
Jesus, my Lord. [Refrain]
