Swing Low, Sweet Chariot

Swing low, sweet chariot

Coming for to carry me home

Swing low, sweet chariot

Coming for to carry me home



I looked over Jordan, and what did I see?

Coming for to carry me home

A band of angels coming after me

Coming for to carry me home



If you get there before I do

Coming for to carry me home

Tell all my friends I'm coming too

Coming for to carry me home



I'm sometimes up and sometimes down

Coming for to carry me home

But still my soul feels heavenly bound

Coming for to carry me home



The brightest day that I can say

Coming for to carry me home

When Jesus washed my sins away

Coming for to carry me home
