PLEASE NOTE: Not all verses may be sung and words may vary in the particular hymn presentation.

Low in the Grave He Lay
Words: Robert Lowry (1826–1899)
Music: Christ Arose | Robert Lowry (1826–1899)
1. Low in the grave He lay, Jesus my Savior,
Waiting the coming day, Jesus my Lord!

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!

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!
