How to add underline to a label?

I have a System.Windows.Controls.Label in my xaml and I'm trying to add an underline style. I can't seem to figure out what to add to my Style to make it underline. When I google for this problem, I only see TextBox solutions. Is that the only way to get an underline?

XAML:

<sdk:Label Content="Show Data in Grid" Name="lblShowGridData" Style="{StaticResource UnderlineLabel}"/>

Style:

<Style x:Key="UnderlineLabel" TargetType="sdk:Label">
    <Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold"/>
</Style>

A Label is a ContentControl, so you can stick a TextBlock with underlining inside it:

    <sdk:Label>
        <TextBlock Text="This is underlined" TextDecorations="Underline" />
    </sdk:Label>
