AINT NO GRAVE

There ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna get up out of the ground
Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
Go down yonder Gabriel, put your feet on the land and see
Oh, Gabriel don't you blow your trumpet 'til you hear it from me
I looked way over yonder and what do you think I see?
I see a band of angels and they're coming after me
Then I looked way down the river saw the people dressed in white
I knew it was God's people 'cause I saw them doing right
Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna get up out of the ground
Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
I'm going down to the river Jordan and I'm gonna bury my knees in the sand
Holler "Ah, Hosanna" 'til I reach the promised land
Then I looked way over yonder and what do you think I see?
I see a band of angels and they're coming after me
So meet me King Jesus, meet me, wont' you meet me in the middle of the air
If these wings should carry me, I won't need another pair
Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna get up out of the ground
Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
