They're gonna bury more than my body
When I leave this world behind
All the struggles of life, temptation and strife
Will finally lay down and die
Those earthly things can't hurt me then
I'll be moving on home when the Lord says when
It comforts me to know that I know
What'll be with me when I go
I'll take it to the grave and into that great beyond where Heaven's waiting
The promise that I'll enter in, and stand in the presence of God
Sweet hope of the resurrection, and assurance that I'm saved
No the devil and the world can't steal it from me, I'll take it to the grave
There'll never be a cause for weeping when the old sin nature is dead
Cause struggles and stress will be laid to rest and my heart will never break again
Folks say you can't take things with you, but God's word tells me it can't be true
The joy and peace Christ gave to me will be mine for eternity
I'll take it to the grave and into that great beyond where Heaven's waiting
The promise that I'll enter in, and stand in the presence of God
Sweet hope of the resurrection, and assurance that I'm saved
No the devil and the world can't steal it from me, I'll take it to the grave
So when I go no need to wonder
I'll be doing alright
I'll be dead, six feet under and have everlasting life
Everlasting life!
I'll take it to the grave and into that great beyond where Heaven's waiting
The promise that I'll enter in, and stand in the presence of God
Sweet hope of the resurrection, and assurance that I'm saved
No the devil and the world can't steal it from me, I'll take it to the grave
No the devil and the world can't steal it from me, I'll take it to the grave
I'll take it to the grave (I'll take it to the grave)
I'll take it to the grave (I'll take it to the grave)
I'll take it to the grave (I'll take it to the grave)
I'll take it to the grave (I'll take it to the grave)
No the devil and the world can't steal it from me, I'll take it to the grave
I'll take it to the grave
