  1. Low in the grave he lay—

    Jesus, my Saviour,

    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 for ever with his saints to reign.

    He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!

  2. Vainly they watch his bed—

    Jesus, my Saviour;

    Vainly they seal the dead—

    Jesus, my Lord.

  3. Death cannot keep his prey—

    Jesus, my Saviour;

    He tore the bars away—

    Jesus, my Lord.
