Chorus:

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

If you get there before I do, Coming for to carry me home, Tell all my friends that I’m coming too, 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

Note: this is an old Negro Spiritual.
