Low in the Grave He Lay
"He is risen; he is not here" - Mark 16:6
VERSE 1
Low in the grave He lay
Jesus, my Saviour!
Waiting the coming day
Jesus, my Lord!
CHORUS
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!..
Halleluyah! Christ arose!
VERSE 2
Vainly they watch His bed
Jesus, my Saviour!
Vainly they seal the dead
Jesus, my Lord!
CHORUS
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!..
Halleluyah! Christ arose!
VERSE 3
Death cannot keep His prey
Jesus, my Saviour!
He tore the bars away
Jesus, my Lord!
CHORUS
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!..
Halleluyah! Christ arose!
