Swing Low, Sweet Chariot


Melody - Melody - Harry Thacker Burleigh, 191? (1866-1949)

|: 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!

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

If you get there before I do,
Comin' for to carry me home,
Jess tell my friends that I'm acomin' too,
Comin' for to carry me home.

|: Swing low, sweet 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!
