Ain't No Grave [Remastered 2023]

I look down the river
what do you think I see?
I see a band of angels
and they're coming after me

Look down yonder, Gabriel
Put your feet on the land and see
But, Gabriel, don't you slow your horses
not 'til you hear from me

There ain't no grave that can hold my body down
There ain't no grave that can hold my body down
When you hear that trumpet sound
I'm gonna rise right out of the ground
There ain't no grave that can hold my body down

Meet me, Jesus, meet me
meet me in the middle of the air
And if my wings done failed me
won't you meet me with another pair?

Meet me mother and father
meet me by the river road
You know, Mama, that I'll be there
when I will check in my load

There ain't no grave that can hold my body down
There ain't no grave that can hold my body down
When you hear that trumpet sound
I'm gonna rise right out of the ground
There ain't no grave that can hold my body down

Meet me, Jesus, meet me
meet me in the middle of the air
And if my wings done failed me
won't you meet me with another pair?

Meet me mother and father
meet me by the river road
You know, Mama, that I'll be there
when I will check in my load

There ain't no grave that can hold my body down
There ain't no grave that can hold my body down
There ain't no grave that can hold my body down
There ain't no grave that can hold my body down
