There ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down There ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down Shame is a prison as cruel as a grave Shame is a robber and he's come to take my name Love is my redeemer lifting me up from the ground Love is the power when my freedom song is found There ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down There ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down Fear is a liar with a smooth and velvet tongue Fear is a tyrant always telling me to run Love is a resurrection and love is a trumpet sound Love is my weapon, I'm gonna take my giants down There ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down There ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna rise up outta the ground There ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down There was a battle, a war between death and life And there on a tree the Lamb of God was crucified He went on down to hell, He took back every key He rose up as a lion and He set all captives free There ain't no grave Could hold His body down There ain't no grave Could hold His body down When He heard that trumpet sound He rose up outta the ground There ain't no grave Could hold His body down Could hold His body down Could hold His body down Could hold His body down Could hold His body down
