Ain't No Grave
Hillary Scott & The Scott Family Lyrics

Well, there ain't no grave that'll hold my body down
No grave on this earth is strong enough to hold my body

There ain't no grave that'll hold my body down
I repeat, no grave can hold me down

When I hear that trumpet sound
When I hear the trumpet blowing on Judgment Day

Gotta get up out of the ground
I have to rise up from my grave

There ain't no grave that'll hold my body down
I declare once more, no grave has any power over me

Oh my Lord it's a winding road
The journey through life is long and difficult

It's so dead from a heavy load
The burden of sin weighs heavily on my soul

Feel the weight beneath the ground
I feel the weight of the earth as I lie in my grave

Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
But I won't be held there forever

Oh my Lord I can barely see
I can only see dimly through the present darkness

Waiting for You and Your reckoning
I'm waiting for God to judge the living and the dead

Angels humming, can you hear the sound?
I can almost hear the angels singing their sweet songs

Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Because no grave can keep me from eternal life

Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
I proclaim it again, no grave can hold me

I will rise, I will rise
I will rise up to heaven

Troubles come for everyone
Everyone faces troubles in life

Death has no respect for love
Death comes for everyone, regardless of their love or relationships

Throw that stone I won't be found
Even if you try to bury me deep and throw a stone on top, I will still rise

Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Because no grave has power over me

Lord I'm crooked from head to toe
I am a sinner, flawed in every way

Got dirty hands and a dirty soul
My hands and soul are stained with sin

I was lost, but now I'm found
I was lost in sin, but now I am saved by grace

Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
The power of God will raise me from the dead

Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
This truth cannot be denied

I will rise, I will rise
I will experience my own resurrection

Troubles come for everyone
We all face difficulties in this life

Death has no respect for love
Death is an unstoppable force

Throw that stone I won't be found
Even if you try to bury me, I will still rise up

Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
For God has promised that I will be set free

Angels humming, can you hear the sound?
I can hear the heavenly choir calling me home

Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
For Christ has conquered death
