[Verse 1]
B
O shame is a prison,
as cruel as the grave
E
Shame is a robber
and he's come to take my name
B
O love is my redeemer,
lifting me up from the ground
E
Love is the power,
where my freedom song is found.
[Chorus 1]
B
There ain't no grave gonna hold
my body down
E
There ain't no grave gonna hold
B
my body down
B
When I hear that trumpet sound
I'm gonna rise up out of the ground
E
There ain't no grave gonna hold
B
my body down.

[Verse 2]
B
Fear is a liar
with a smooth and velvet tongue
E
Fear is a tyrant
he's always telling me to run
B
Love is a resurrection
and love is a trumpet sound
E
Love is my weapon
I'm gonna to take my giants down.
[Chorus 1]
B
There ain't no grave gonna hold
my body down
E
There ain't no grave gonna hold
B
my body down
B
When I hear that trumpet sound
I'm gonna rise up out of the ground
E
There ain't no grave gonna hold
B
my body down.

[Verse 3]
B
There was a battle
a war between death and life
E
There on a tree
the lamb of God was crucified
B
He went on down to hell
He took back every key
E
He rose up as a lion
He's setting all the captive's free.
[Chorus 2]
B
There ain’t no grave could
hold His body down
E
There ain’t no grave could
B
hold His body down
B
When He heard the trumpet sound
He rose up out of the ground
E
There ain’t no grave could
B
hold His body down
E
There ain’t no grave could
B
hold His body down.
[Tag]
E
There ain’t no grave could
B
hold His body down.
[Bridge]
B
If You walked out of the grave
I’m walkin’ too
[Tag]
E
There ain’t no grave could
B
hold His body down.
