Oh ah, oh ah
Comin' for to carry me home
Oh ah, oh ah
Comin' for to carry me home

Hmm now swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Right now swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
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
I saw a band of angels comin' after me
Comin' for to carry me home

That's when I told them swing low, sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Hmm, 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 of my friends that I'm comin' on too
Comin' for to carry me home

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

Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down
Sometimes I'm almost to the ground

Hmm, right now swing, swing low chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Hmm, swing, swing low chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Oh, swing, swing low, chariot
Comin' to carry me home
Swing, swing low, chariot
Comin' to carry me home

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