[Chorus]
There 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 now till you hear from me
[Chorus]
There ain’t no grave over Jordan
What do you think I see
I saw a band of Holy Angels and they’re comin’ after me
I cried meet me meet me Jesus
Meet me in the middle of the air
I’m gonna rise to meet my Lord and say goodbye down here
[Chorus]
One day if they’ll carry me out to the graveyard
Like my grandma like my grandpa
Don’t cry for me
Don’t cry for me
Cause on the resurrection morning
We all get up out of the ground
[Chorus]
