Ain't No Grave

I dreamt I died, no longer could I see
I dreamt I died, no longer could I see
I dreamt I died, no longer could I see
But I heard my woman a-wailing over me

Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound
I'm gonna rise right outta the ground
Saying ain't no grave gon' keep my body down

My wasted years, no, not one will return
My wasted days, no, not one will return
My wasted hours, one by one I've earned
And I hear those shovels a-piling on top of me

Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound
I'm gonna rise right outta the ground
Saying ain't no grave gon' keep my body down

Saying oh my Lord, if a blind eye can see
Saying oh my God, if a slave can be set free
Saying oh my Jesus, if it has no hold on Thee
Take my hand, come and wake me from my sleep

Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound
I'm gonna rise right outta the ground
Saying ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down

Roll away that stone, roll away that stone
Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
Roll away that stone, roll away that stone
Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
Roll away that stone, roll away that stone
Said ain't no grave gon' keep my body down
