It was early one mornin'
Just about the break of day
The angels came in glory
And rolled the stone, stone away
When the women came along
And they found the Savior was gone
Can't no grave, Hold My body down

(Chorus)
Can't no grave, Hold My body down
Can't no grave, Hold My body down
When the first trumpet sounds
I'm gonna get up out of the ground
Can't no grave, Hold My body down

Listen up, dear Gabriel
Stand on land and the sea
Don't you do nothing
Till You hear orders from me
Now the night is almost gone
And the day is comin on
Can't no grave, Hold My body down

(Chorus)
(Chorus)

Now, listen to Me...
(Chorus)

Can't no grave, Hold My body down
Can't no grave, Hold My body down, Oh nooo...
