Robert Lowry
(1826-1899)
Low in the grave He lay,
Jesus my Savior,
Waiting the coming day,
Jesus my Lord.
Chorus:
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!
Vainly they watched His bed,
Jesus my Savior;
Vainly they sealed the dead,
Jesus my Lord
Death could not keep its Prey,
Jesus my Savior!
He tore the bars away,
Jesus my Lord!
