115. Low in the Grave He Lay

1 Low in the grave He lay--
Jesus my Savior!
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 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! [Chorus]

3 Death cannot keep his prey--
Jesus, my Savior!
He tore the bars away--
Jesus, my Lord! [Chorus]
