Swing low … sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low … sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home.
Well, I looked over Jordan and what did I see
Comin' for to carry me home …
A band of angels runnin after me
They was-a comin' for to carry me home.
Look down …
Look down
That lonesome road
Before you travel on.
Look up …
Give a look up
And seek your maker
Before Mr. Gabriel blows his horn.
You know I'm weary
From all this load
Tired of movin' on down
This long and lonely road.
Look down … look down
Look down … look down
That lonesome road
Before … before you travel on …
Before … way long time …
'fore you travel on …
