Lyrics:

Swing low sweet chariot,
Comin' for to carry me home
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
If you get there before I do
Comin' for to carry me home
Tell all my friends I'm a coming too
Comin' for to carry me home
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down
Comin' for to carry me home
But still my soul feels heavenly bound,
Comin' for to carry me home
