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

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

I'm sometimes up and sometimes down
Comin' for to carry me home
But still my soul feels heavenly bound
Comin' for to carry me home

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

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

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