There Ain’t No Grave (Gonna Hold My Body Down)
[Chorus]
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound
I'm gonna get up off the ground
Well, there ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down

[Verse 1]
Well, go down yonder, Gabriel
Put your feet on the land and sea
But Gabriel, don't blow your trumpet
Until you hear from me
Well, I look way over yonder
Seen people dressed in white
I know it was God's people
I seen 'em doin' right
Well, I look way down the river
And what do you think I've seen?
I've seen a band of angels
They're coming after me

[Chorus]
Well, there ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound
I'm gonna get up off the ground
Well, there ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
[Verse 2]
Well, I'm goin' to the river at Jordan
I'm gonna kneel down in the sand
Gonna holler high, "Hosanna"
'Til I reach that promised land
Well, I look way over yonder
And what do you think I've seen?
I've seen a band of angels
They're coming after me
Well, meet me Jesus, meet me
Well, meet me in the middle of the air
And if these wings should fail me
There won't be no other pair

[Chorus]
Well, there ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound
Gonna get up off the ground
Well, there ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
