100. Low in the Grave Christ Lay

1 Low in the grave Christ 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]
