Song for Sunday: Up from the Grave He Arose!


Alleluia, Christ is Risen
He is risen indeed. 

For this Easter Sunday, an older hymn with a dynamic tone. Sing the verses 
quietly, the first one almost gloomily, then sing the refrain vibrantly, with
joy. Remember that whatever problems we are facing, Christ is stronger. He beat 
death!
 
Up From the Grave 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!
