Go on brothers lay him down
Go on brothers lay him down
Wrap his body with a clean white shroud
Roll that stone leave him in the ground
Go on brothers lay him down

Go on sisters cry for him
Go on sisters cry for him
But wipe your eyes and dry your skin
The crying will be done in three mornings
Go on sisters cry for him

Hold on children wait and see
Hold on children wait and see
The death that's come is a death too weak
Can't take my Jesus can't take my king
So hold on children wait and see

Oh glory glory won't you come for me
Glory glory won't you come for me
I know your slumber is a momentary sleep
I feel you rising up from the deep
Oh glory glory you will come for me
