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

* Refrain

If you get to heaven before I do
Comin' for to carry me home
Tell all my friends that I'm comin' too
Comin' for to carry me home

* Refrain
