Many years ago I heard a Gospel Soul Choir sing a rendition of Ain't No Grave but I can't Remember Who they were. It was a different version as far as the way it started.
Going down to the river,
Gonna rush right in,
Gonna get baptized in Jesue name,
To wash away my sin.

Kneeling at the alter,
Cryin 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,
And they'll lay this old body down,
But one of these days old Gabriel,
Will blow his horn at last.

And then i'm gonna get up ,get up, get up,
I'm gonna get up outta that ground.
There ain't no grave gonna hold my body down.
When I hear that trumpet sound,
I'm gonna get up outta that ground.

Does anyone remember this version? Where might I find a copy?

All Help appreciated, rennevat
