Tom Jones - Ain't No Grave lyrics

Ain't no grave gonna hold this body down There ain't no grave gonna hold this body down When I hear the trumpet sound Gonna get up outta the ground Cause there ain't no grave gonna hold this body down You said go down yonder Gabriel Place your foot on the land and sea But don't you blow that trumpet until you hear from me Ain't no grave gonna hold this body down There ain't no grave gonna hold this body down When I hear the trumpet sound Gonna get up outta the ground Cause there ain't no grave gonna hold this body down Oh, look way over Jordan What do you think I see I saw a band of Holy Angels and they're comin' after me I cried meet me Jesus meet me Meet me in the middle of the air I'm gonna rise to meet my Lord and I'll say goodbye down here Ain't no grave gonna hold this body down There ain't no grave gonna hold this body down When I hear the trumpet sound Gonna get up outta the ground Cause there ain't no grave gonna hold this body down One day if they carry me out to the graveyard Like my grandma like my grandpa And they lay this body down Don't cry for me Church-don't cry for me
