Well, I looked over Jordan, what did I see
Comin' for to carry me home
A band of angels comin' after me
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
Well, if you get to heaven before I do
Comin' for to carry me home
Tell all of my friends that I'm comin' too
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low sweet chariot
(Swing low, chariot)
Comin' for to carry me home
(Me home)
Swing low sweet chariot
(Swing low, chariot)
Comin' for to carry me home
I was pickin' along on this old cotton road
And I felt like I just couldn't pick another bowl
I looked up in the sky
And I saw a band of angels comin' after me
Hey, swing low sweet chariot
(Swing low sweet chariot)
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low sweet chariot
(Swing low sweet chariot)
Comin' for to carry me home
