Oh my Lord it's a winding road
It's all bent from a heavy load
Feel the weight beneath the ground
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down

Oh my Lord I can barely sing
Waiting for You and Your reckoning
Angels hummin', can you hear the sound'
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down

CHORUS
I will rise, I will rise
I will rise, I will rise
Troubles come for everyone
Death has no respect for love
Roll that stone I won't be found
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down

Lord I'm crooked from head to toe
Got dirty hands and a dirty soul
I was lost but now I'm found
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down

Chorus

Feel the weight beneath the ground
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down

Chorus

Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
Ain't no grave gonna hold me down
