I looked over Jordan and what did I see 
Comin' for to carry me home 
I saw a whole band of angels comin' after me 
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

Well I'm sometimes up and sometimes I'm down 
Comin' for to carry me home 
But still my soul is heavenly bound 
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

Well if you get there before I do 
Comin' for to carry me home 
I want you to tell all my friends I'm a' comin' too 
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

Oh swing down chariot, stop and let me ride 
Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride 
Swing down sweet chariot, stop and let me ride 
Cause I've earned me a home on the other side

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

Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride 
I've got a home on the other side 
Swing down chariot and let me ride 
They're comin' for to carry me home
