Swing low, sweet chariot, comin' for to carry me home.

Tell all my friends I'm comin' there too. Comin' for to carry me home.

Swing low, sweet chariot, 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 I know I'm heavenly (freedom) bound. Comin' for to carry me home.

Swing low, sweet chariot, comin' for to carry me home.
Swing low, sweet chariot, comin' for to carry me home.

If I get there before you do, comin' for to carry me home.
I'll cut a hole and pull you through. Comin' for to carry me home .

Swing low, sweet chariot, comin' for to carry me home.
Swing low, sweet chariot, comin' for to carry me home.
