Low in the grave He lay

1
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!
2
Vainly they watch His bed—
  Jesus, my Savior!
Vainly they seal the dead—
  Jesus my Lord!
3
Death cannot keep his prey—
  Jesus, my Savior!
He tore the bars away—
  Jesus my Lord!

I, like some others who testified, woke up with this song in my spirit. As l sang, l was happy and the Lord ministered that His children must remember that He arose triuphantly and won a MIGHTY and TOTAL victory on our behalf. Victory over COVID-19 right now that has rendered the world helpless, over Cancer, over any thing, person or situation that tends to intimidate us. What a WONDERFUL SAVIOUR JESUS IS. I encourage you to trust in Him and be hopeful and comforted because He can never fail. Thank you Jesus.

I thank the Lord for increasing the desire in me until I finally resorted to Google (I am generally a non-fan of monopolies) and FOUND the lyrics to this song! It has always been deeply entwined with my joy when I've contemplated the reality of the Resurrection. I have come to discover this reality is a daily occurrence in my own soul, if I'll allow it. THANK YOU web designers, too, for building this bridge for me and many others to find.

The reason for this song is the hope and strength of our Faith today, for if Christ had not arose from the dead, we would not have been believers today. I love this hymn, and also I celebrate the composer, may God honour him.

What a man! Our Saviour Christ Jesus gave Himself over to death. He went down into Hades death's own domain. Yet death could not retain Him.

Up from the grave He arose victorious over His foe! Hallelujah!

Now His life is spreading across the earth regenerating man- bringing him up from the dead! Hallelujah!
