Jesus my Saviour;
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 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. [Refrain]
3 Death cannot keep its prey,
Jesus my Saviour;
he tore the bars away,
Jesus, my Lord. [Refrain]
