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

I looked over Jordan, now what did I see you,
Coming for to carry me home
A band of angels coming for me,

Coming for to carry me home

If you get there before I do,
Coming for to carry me home
Please, tell them all that I'm-a coming too,
Coming for to carry me home
