[1] Ain't no grave gonna hold my body down
Ain't no [4] grave gonna hold my body [1] down
When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna get up outa the ground
Ain't no [4] grave gonna hold my body [1] down

[1] Go down yonder Gabriel
Put your foot on the land and sea
Oh [4] Gabriel don't you blow that trumpet until you hear from [1] me

I looked way over yonder
And what do you think I see
I see a band of angels and they're comin' after me

Then I looked way down the river
Saw the people dressed in white
I knew it was God's people 'cause I saw them doin' right

Goin' down to the river of Jordan
And I'm gonna bury my knees in the sand
Holler high Hosanna til I reach that promised land

Then I looked way over yonder
What do you think I see
I see a band of angels and they're comin' after me

So meet king Jesus meet me
Won't you meet me in the middle of the air
If these wings should carry me I won't need another pair
