Refrain

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

I looked ov­er Jor­dan, and what did I see?
Coming for to car­ry me home,
A band of an­gels com­ing af­ter me,
Coming for to car­ry me home.

Refrain

If you get there be­fore I do,
Coming for to car­ry me home,
Tell all my friends I’m com­ing, too.
Coming for to car­ry me home.

Refrain

I’m some­times up and some­times down,
Coming for to car­ry me home,
But still my soul feels hea­ven­ly bound,
Coming for to car­ry me home.

Refrain

The bright­est day that I can say,
Coming for to car­ry me home,
When Je­sus washed my sins away,
Coming for to car­ry me home.
