Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home

Oh, swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Oh, swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home

I looked over Jordan and what did I see
Comin' for to carry me home
A band of angels comin' after me
Comin' for to carry me home

I'm sometimes up, I'm sometimes down
Comin' for to carry me home
But still my soul is a-Heaven bound
Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home

If you get there before I do
Comin' for to carry me home
Tell all my friends I'm a-comin' too
Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Oh, swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home

Oh, Lord have mercy on me
Oh, Lord have mercy on me
Oh, Lord have mercy on me
And I hope I'll join the band

Gonna ride up in the chariot
Soon-a in the mornin'
Ride up in the chariot
Soon-a in the mornin'
Ride up in the chariot
Soon-a in the mornin'
And I hope I'll join the band

Oh, Lord have mercy on me
Oh, Lord have mercy on me
Oh, Lord have mercy on me
And I hope I'll join the band

Gonna chatter with the angels
Soon-a in the morning
Chatter with the angels
Soon-a in the morning
Chatter with the angels
Soon-a in the morning
And I hope I'll join the band

Oh, Lord have mercy on me
Oh, Lord have mercy on me
Oh, Lord have mercy on me
Ride in the chariot, my Lord
