Rise again

Go ahead, drive the nails in my hands;
laugh at me... where you stand.
go ahead, and say it isn't me;
the day will come... when you will see.
(refrain)
'cause i'll rise.... again;
ain't no power on earth can keep me down!
yes, i'll rise... again;
death can't keep me in the ground.
Go ahead, mock my name;
my love for you is still the same.
go ahead, and bury me;
but very soon, i will be free!
(refrain) (instrumental bridge)
Go ahead, and say i'm dead and gone,
but you will see that you were wrong.
go ahead, try to hide the son;
but all will see that i'm the one!
(final refrain)
'cause i'll come again!
ain't no power on earth can keep me back!
yes, i'll come again;
come to take my people back.
