Go down to the river, put my knees down in the sand.
I'm gonna holler High Hosannas, when I reach that promised land.
Well I looked way over Jordan, I saw people dressed in white.
(This is Janet Paschal's version of Ain't No Grave)

I know they was God's children, Lord, cause I seen 'em doin' right.
And then I looked way over Jordan, and what do you think that I did see? I seen a band of angels, Lord, comin' after me.
Well you can take me out to the graveyard. And you can lay this 'ol body down. But on that first resurrection mornin'. Well I'm gonna come up, come up, come up, come up, come up outta the ground.

(c) There ain't no grave gonna hold my body down. There ain't no grave gonna hold my body down. And when I hear that trumpet sound well I'm gonna get up, gonna get up, gonna get up outta the ground.

Oh yes and meet me Jesus, meet me, meet me in the middle of the air. Although all others have failed me Lord I know that you'll be there. If you get to heaven before God calls me home. You can just tell everybody that I'm comin' and it won't be long.
