Go down yonder Gabriel
put your foot on the land and sea
now blow your trumpet boy until you hear from me
There ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
there ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
when you hear that trumpet sound
gonna get up out of the ground
there ain't no grave gonna hold my body down

Looked over Jordan, what did I see?
A band of angels coming after me
There ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
there ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
when you hear that trumpet sound
gonna get up out of the ground
there ain't no grave gonna hold my body down

Meet me Jesus meet me
Meet me in the middle of the air
if these wings fail me, meet me with another pair
There ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
there ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
when you hear that trumpet sound
gonna get up out of the ground
there ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
