Sweet Chariot

Comin' for to carry me home,
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home.
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home.
I looked over Jordan,
And what did I see,
Coming for to carry me home,
A band of angels comin' after me,
Comin' for to carry me home.
Oh swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home.
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Comin' for to carry me home.

As a recording within the broader canon of religious music, the piece serves as a timeless contribution to the tradition of congregational singing, capturing the serene and uplifting spirit characteristic of the era's sacred repertoire.
