I
WELL GO DOWN YONDER GABRIEL
PUT YOUR FOOT ON LAND AND SEA
BUT GABRIEL DON'T YOU BLOW THAT TRUMPET
UNTIL YOU HEAR FROM ME
I LOOKED WAY OVER YONDER
WHAT DO YOU THINK I SEEN
I SAW A BAND OF ANGELS
THEY WERE COMING AFTER ME
CHORUS
WELL THERE AIN'T NO GRAVE
GONNA HOLD MY BODY DOWN
THERE AIN'T NO GRAVE
GONNA HOLD MY BODY DOWN
WHEN I HERE THAT TRUMPET SOUND
GONNA GET UP OUT OF THE GROUND
CAUSE THERE AIN'T NO GRAVE
GONNA HOLD MY BODY DOWN
II
GO DOWN TO THE RIVER JORDAN
PUT MY KNEES DOWN IN THE SAND
GONNA HOLLER HALLELUJAH
TILL I REACH THAT PROMISED LAND
WELL MEET ME JESUS MEET ME
MEET ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AIR
AND IF THESE WINGS SHOULD FAIL ME
I WON'T NEED ANOTHER PAIR
