[Chorus]
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home

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

[Verse 1]
(Good Lord, I) Looked over Jordan, what did I see?
(Great God, He's) Coming for to carry me home
(Lord, [saw the/got the]) [Sweet/two?] band of angels coming after me
(Great God, He's) Coming for to carry me home

[Verse 2]
(Good Lord, the) Brightest day (Good Lord) I ever saw
(Great God, He's) Coming for to carry me home
(Lord, when) Jesus washed my sins away
(Great God, He's) 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

[Verse 3]
(Good Lord, I'm) Sometimes up, (Great God, I'm) sometimes down
(Good Lord, He's) Coming for to carry me home
(Lord, but) Still my soul feels heavenly bound
(Great God, He's) 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
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home
