Odetta Holmes - 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
What do you think I see
I see a band of angels
And they're coming after me

There ain't no grave
Can hold my body down
There ain't no grave
Can hold my body down

Wel,l 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
There ain't no grave
Can hold my body down

Well, meet me Jesus, meet me
Meet me in the middle of the earth
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
