Christ arose by Robert Lowry — Lyrics
1 Low in the grave he lay, Jesus my Saviour,
waiting the coming day, Jesus my Lord!
Refrain:
Up from the grave he arose;
as the victor over all his foes;
he arose in triumph from the dark domain,
and he lives forever, with his saints to reign.

About Christ arose
Robert Lowry's familiar hymn Christ Arose is set here for SATB choir. The organ accompaniment provides a steady pulse, while the choir builds in excitement, particularly in the triumphant refrain. The text celebrates the resurrection of Jesus, emphasizing his victory over death and the grave. The English lyrics convey a powerful message of hope and eternal reign with the saints, making it a deeply resonant anthem for Easter and beyond. The SATB voicing allows for rich harmonic support to the well-loved melody, bringing the story of Christ's resurrection to life with vibrant energy.
