[Intro]
Well, there ain't no grave that'll hold my body down
There ain't no grave that'll hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound
Gotta get up out of the ground
There ain't no grave that'll hold my body down
[Verse 1]
Oh my Lord it's a winding road
It's so dead 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
[Chorus]
I will rise, I will rise
I will rise, I will rise
Troubles come for everyone
d**h has no respect for love
Throw that stone I won't be found
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
I will rise, I will rise
I will rise, I will rise
Troubles come for everyone
d**h has no respect for love
Throw that stone I won't be found
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
[Refrain]
Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh
[Bridge]
Angels humming, can you hear the sound?
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
[Chorus]
I will rise, I will rise
I will rise, I will rise
Troubles come for everyone
d**h has no respect for love
Throw that stone I won't be found
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
[Refrain]
Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh
[Outro]
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
