Worship and Rejoice ‎#294

294. Christ Arose!

1 Low in the grave he 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 his prey--
Jesus my Savior,
he tore the bars away--
Jesus my Lord! [Refrain]
