"The angel said to the women, 'Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; He has risen, just as He said.'" Matthew 28:5-6



Low in the Grave He lay

      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 over 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 over 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 over 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!

"Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits
of those who have fallen asleep." 1 Corinthians 15:20


Sing With All the Saints in Glory


Sing with all the saints in glory, sing the resurrection song!
Death and sorrow, earth's dark story, to the former days belong.
All around the clouds are breaking, soon the storms of time shall cease;
In God's likeness we, awaking, know the everlasting peace.

O what glory, far exceeding all that eye has yet perceived!
Holiest hearts, for ages pleading, never that full joy conceived.
God has promised, Christ prepares it, there on high our welcome waits.
Every humble spirit shares it; Christ has passed th'eternal gates.

Life eternal! heaven rejoices; Jesus lives, who once was dead.
Join we now the deathless voices; child of God, lift up your head!
Patriarchs from the distant ages, saints all longing for their heaven,
Prophets, psalmists, seers, and sages, all await the glory given.

Life eternal! O what wonders crowd on faith; what joy unknown,
When, amidst earth's closing thunders, saints shall stand before the throne!
O to enter that bright portal, see that glowing firmament;
Know, with Thee, O God immortal, "Jesus Christ whom Thou has sent."
