Refrain
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home,
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home.
1. 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. [Refrain]
2. 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. [Refrain]
3. 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. [Refrain]
4. 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. [Refrain]
