Swing Low, Sweet Chariot

 

Swing low, sweet chariot

Coming for to carry me home,

Swing low, sweet chariot,

Coming for to carry me home.

 

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.

 

Chorus

 

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)

 

Chorus

 

If I get there before you do,
(Coming for to carry me home)
I'll cut a hole and pull you through.
(Coming for to carry me home)

Chorus

 

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)

Chorus
