"Ain't No Grave" lyrics

Charlie Parr & The Brothers Comatose Lyrics

"Ain't No Grave"

There ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
When you hear that trumpet sound
You're gonna get up of the ground
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down

Come down to the river, Gabriel
Put your foot on the land and sea
But Gabriel, don't you blow that trumpet
Until you hear from me

There ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
When you hear that trumpet sound
You're gonna get up of the ground
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down

Come down to the river, Joe
Put my knees down in the sand
I holler high Hosanna
I make it to promised land

There ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
When you hear that trumpet sound
You're gonna get up of the ground
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down

Meet me, Jesus, meet me
Meet me in the middle of the air
And if my wings will fail me, Lord
Then meet me with another pair

There ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
When you hear that trumpet sound
You're gonna get up of the ground
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down

There ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
When you hear that trumpet sound
You're gonna get up of the ground
Ain't no grave
Gonna hold my body down
