Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Ain't No Grave
I Remember a version that started

Going down to the river,
Gonna rush right in,
Gonna get baptized in Jesus' name,
To wash away my sin.

Kneeling at the alter,
Crying to the Lord above,
The Holy Ghost came down on me,
I spoke in an unknown tongue.

Well times may come,
And times may go,
******************,
******************,
But one of these days,
Old Gabriel, Will blow his horn at last.

Then I'm gonna get up , get up , get up,
I'm gonna get up outta that ground,
Ain't no grave, gonna hold my body down.

Continue with rest of song.






It was done by a black gospel choir but I can't remember who. Anybody have any ideas?

I'm trying to locate the complete lyrics for this version.
