lyrics

v1:
Arise, my soul! Awake from sleep!
Behold thy Savior’s grave!
His loved ones, mourning, laid him deep
In death’s devouring cave.

Chorus 1
But from the tomb He victorious came,
Might that we will do the same
Ever blessed be His name!

v2:
A cheering sound, an angel’s voice,
Proclaimeth from on high.
Our brother, Jesus, oh rejoice,
Could not death’s captive lie.

v3:
O sacred day, sublimest day,
O Mystery unheard!
Death’s hosts, that claimed Him as their prey,
He scattered with a word.

Chorus 2
But from the tomb He victorious came,
Might that we will do the same
Ever blessed be His name!

v4:
The grave is dark, the grave is cold,
And I must slumber there.
But risen, I will Christ behold,
Christ’s glories will I share

v5:
That I a welcome warm may win
From Jesus at the end.
From the foul rot of sin
May I as victorious rise

Chorus 3
But from the tomb He victorious came,
Might that we will do the same
Ever blessed be His name!

v6: I boldly now defy thee, death!
For you have lost your sting.
Defy, O Hell thy blasting breath,
All terrors you can’t bring!

Chorus 4
But from the tomb He victorious came,
Might that we will do the same
Ever blessed be His name!

Chorus 5
But from the tomb He victorious came,
Might that we will do the same
Ever blessed be His name!
