There ain't no grave can hold my body down
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound
Im gonna rise right out of the ground
Ain't no grave can hold my body down
Well look way down the river
What do you think I see?
I see a band of Angels
And theyre coming after me
Ain't no grave can hold my body down
Ain't no grave can hold my body down
Well look down yonder Gabriel
Put your feet on the land and sea
But Gabriel dont you blow your trumpet till you hear from me
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
Ain't no grave can hold my body down
Well Meet me Jesus meet me
Meet me in the middle of the air
And If these wings dont fail me,I will meet you anywhere
Aint no grave can hold my body down
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
Well meet me Mother and Father
Meet me down the river road
And Mama you know thatll Ill be there
When I check in my load
Aint no grave can hold my body down
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
There ain't no grave can hold my body down
