He Arose

Low in the grave He lay,

Jesus my Savior,

Waiting the coming day,

Jesus my Lord!

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 watch His bed,

Jesus my Savior,

Vainly they seal the dead,

Jesus my Lord!

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!

Death cannot keep its prey,

Jesus my Savior;

He tore the bars away,

Jesus my Lord!

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!

“Oh that my words were recorded,

that they were written on a scroll,

that they were inscribed with an iron

tool on lead,

or engraved in rock forever!

I KNOW MY REDEEMER LIVES,

and that in the end

He will stand upon the earth...”

Job 19:23-25
