Traditional
Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
[Chorus]
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, low, sweet char—, sweet chariot
Oh, coming for to carry me home, oh Lord

[Verse 1]
And I know
Looked over Jordan, what did I see
They're coming for to carry me home
There was a band of angels coming after me
Oh, coming for to carry, carry me home

[Chorus]
Swing low, sweet, sweet, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry, carry me home
Swing low, sweet, sweet char—, sweet chariot
They’re coming for to carry me home, oh Lord

[Verse 2]
Said I know
If you get to Heaven long before I do
Well, it's coming for to carry me home
Tell all my friends that I'll be there, too
Coming for to carry, carry me home
Yee, hee
[Outro]
Swing low, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet chariot
Oh, coming for to carry me home
