Ain't No Grave

Well there ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down
Well there ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down

When I hear the trumpet sound
I'm gonna get up out 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
Now don't you blow that trumpet now
Until you hear from me

Cause there ain't no grave, ain't no grave
That's gonna hold this body down now
No, no, no, no

There ain't no grave
(Ain't no grave)
Gonna hold this body down
(No no no, no no no)

When I hear the trumpet sound
Gonna get up out that ground
There ain't no grave
Gonna hold this body down

Said look way over Jordan
Whaddya think I'd 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

There ain't no grave

One day they'll carry me out to the graveyard (Yeah, to the graveyard)
Like my grandma (like my grandma)
Like my grandpa (like my grandpa)
But don't cry for me

Cause on the resurrection morning
We'll all get up outta the ground
