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, sweet chariot

Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low, sweet chariot

Comin' for to carry me home

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, sweet chariot

Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low, sweet chariot

Comin' for to carry me home

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, sweet chariot

Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low, sweet chariot

Comin' for to carry me home
