Acapeldridge's 'Christ Arose' is a classic Easter hymn celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The lyrics describe Jesus lying in the grave, then triumphantly rising from death, defeating His foes, and living forever to reign with His saints. The song emphasizes the victory over death and the empty tomb, with a refrain declaring 'He arose!' and a final 'Hallelujah! Christ arose!' It reflects the biblical account of the resurrection and the hope it brings to believers.
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!
Death cannot keep his Prey,
Jesus, my Savior;
He tore the bars away,
Jesus, my Lord!
