Hymnal: Songs of Zion #104 (1981) Hymnal Title: Songs of Zion First Line: I looked over Jordan, and what did I see Lyrics: Refrain:
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home:
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home.
1 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]
2 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]
3 I’m sometimes up, I'm sometimes down,
Coming for to carry me home;
But still my soul feels heavenly bound,
Coming for to carry me home. [Refrain] Topics: Negro Spirituals and Afro-American Liberation Songs Languages: English Tune Title: [I looked over Jordan, and what did I see]
Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
