Up from the Grave He Arose

No. 683
(CHRIST AROSE. 11.10 with refrain)
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:
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!

3.

Death cannot keep his prey—
Jesus, my Savior;
he tore the bars away—
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!
