Up From the Grave He Arose

Low in the grave he lay
Jesus my Savior
Waiting the coming day
Jesus my Lord!

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!*

Vainly they watch his bed
Jesus my Savior
Vainly they seal the dead
Jesus my Lord!

Death cannot keep its prey
Jesus my Savior
He tore the bars away
Jesus my Lord!

* Hallelujah means “praise Yah(weh)”
