Swing Low, Sweet Chariot - Lyrics
Old & In The Way – 1973
         
Well I looked over Jordan and what did I see?
Coming for to carry me home.
But a band of angels coming after me.
Coming for to carry me home.

Chorus
Swing low, Sweet Chariot.
Coming for to carry me home.
Swing low, Sweet Chariot.
Coming for to carry me home.

Break
           
Well if you get there before I do.
Coming for to carry me home.
Tell all of my friends that I’m a coming too.
Coming for to carry me home.

Chorus - Break
             
Well I’m sometimes up, and I’m sometimes down.
Coming for to carry me home.
But I tell my soul its heavenward bound.
Coming for to carry me home.

Chorus - Break
       
Well I looked over Jordan and what did I see?
Coming for to carry me home.
It was a band of angels coming after me.
Coming for to carry me home.

Chorus
Swing low, Sweet Chariot.
Coming for to carry me home.
Swing low, Sweet Chariot.
Coming for to carry me home.
