Ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
When I hear the trumpet sound
Gonna get up outa the ground
Cause there ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
Go down yonder Gabriel
Place your foot on the land and sea
But don't you blow that trumpet
Until you hear from me
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
When I hear the trumpet sound
Gonna get up outa the ground
Cause there ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
I said look way over Jordan
What do you think I see
I saw a band of holy angels
And they're coming after me
I cried meet me, meet me, Jesus
Meet me in the middle of the air
I'm gonna rise to meet the Lord
And I'm gonna say goodbye down here
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
When I hear the trumpet sound
Gonna get up outa the ground
Cause there ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
I cried meet me, meet me, Jesus
Meet me in the middle of the air
I'm gonna rise to meet the Lord
And I'm gonna say goodbye down here
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
When I hear the trumpet sound
Gonna get up outa the ground
Cause there ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
One day they'll carry me out to the graveyard
Like my grandma
Like my grandpa
They'll lay this body down
Don't cry for me
Don't cry for me
Cause on that Resurrection mornin'
We'll all get up
Out of the ground
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
When I hear the trumpet sound
Gonna get up outa the ground
Cause there ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
