Ain't No Grave

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

I'm 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 they're coming after me

Ain't no grave can hold my body down

There ain't no grave can hold my body down

Well, look down yonder, Gabriel

Put your feet on the land and sea

But Gabriel, don't you blow your trumpet 'til you hear it 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 don't fail me

I will meet you anywhere

Ain't 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 momma you know that I'll be there

When I check in my load

Ain't no grave can hold my body down

There aint no grave can hold my body down

There ain't no grave can hold my body down
