Oh my Lord, it's a winding road. It's all bent from a heavy load. Feel the weight beneath the ground, Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. Oh my Lord, I can barely see Waiting for you and your reckoning. Angels humming, can you hear the sound? Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. I will rise. I will rise. I will rise. I will rise. Troubles come for everyone, d**h has no respect for love. Roll that stone I won't be found. Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. Lord, I'm crooked from head to toe. Got dirty hands and a dirty soul. I was lost but now I'm found. Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. I will rise. I will rise. I will rise. I will rise. Troubles come for everyone, d**h has no respect for love. Roll that stone I won't be found. Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. Feel the weight beneath the ground, Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. I will rise I will rise I will rise I will rise Troubles come for everyone, d**h has no respect for love Roll that stone I won't be found. Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. Ain't no grave gonna hold me down. Ain't no grave gonna hold me down.
