Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
verse 1
I looked over Jordan, what did I see
Coming for to carry me home
A band of angels coming after me
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
verse 2
I'm sometimes up, and sometimes down
And sometimes I feel alone
But I know my soul is a heavenly bound
One day Jesus gon' carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
verse 3
Well, if you get there before I do
Just make yourself at home
But tell all my friends I'm coming too
And tell 'em that it won't be long
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Outro
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Coming for to carry me home
Coming for to carry me-e home
