[Intro]
(Oh, sweet chariot)
(Oh, sweet chariot)
(Oh, sweet chariot)
[Chorus]
Swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
[Verse 1]
Hey, I looked over Jordan, what did I see
Comin' for to carry me home?
I see'd a band of angels comin' after me
Oh Lord, comin' for to carry me home
[Chorus]
Swing it, swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
[Verse 2]
If you get there before I do
Comin' for to carry me home
Tell all of my friends I'm comin' there soon
Comin' for to carry me home
[Chorus]
Oh Lord, swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
[Verse 3]
I work all day, good God, I work all night
Comin' for to carry me home
And I will not get to Heaven if I don't let that ride
Comin' for to carry me home
[Chorus]
Oh children, swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Oh well yeah, swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low (Swing low), sweet, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
