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 and what do you think I see?

I see a band of angels and they're comin' 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 see

But Gabriel, don't you blow your trumpet till 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 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 mama, you know that I'll be there when I check in my load

Ain't 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
