Low In The Grave He Lay

LOW IN THE GRAVE HE LAY (Public Domain)

Words & Music: Robert Lowry, 1874

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!

Vainly they watch His bed, Jesus my Savior; Vainly they seal the dead, Jesus my Lord!

Refrain

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