Ro­bert Low­ry, 1874.

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!

3.      Death cannot keep its Prey, Jesus my Savior;
He tore the bars away, Jesus my Lord!
