Swing Low, Sweet Chariot

 

Swing low, sweet chariot, 
Coming for to carry me home 
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home

 

Couplet 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)

 

Couplet2

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)

 

Couplet 3

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)
