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?

Comin' for to carry me home

A band of angels comin' after me

Comin' for to carry me home



Swing low...



Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down

Comin' for to carry me home

But still I know I'm heavenly bound

Comin' for to carry me home



Swing low...



If you get there before I do

Comin' for to carry me home

Tell all my friends that I'm a-comin' too

Comin' for to carry me home



Now if I get there before you do

Comin' for to carry me home

I'll cut a hole and I'll pull you through

Comin' for to carry me home



Swing low...
