Swing Low, Sweet Chariot
by The Acappella Company

Album: Spirituals

Swing low, my sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, my, my sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home

Swing low, my sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home
Swing low, my, my sweet chariot
Comin' for to carry me home (Hey, I just wanna go home,
Swing low, sweet chariot, and carry me home)

Chorus:
(Come on and swing) Swing down chariot, (Stop and let) Stop and let me ride
(Come on and) Swing down chariot, stop and let me ride
(Oh, why don't you rock me, rock me Lord) Oh rock me Lord, rock me Lord
Come in easy
I've got a home on the other side

(You know that six) Six white horses prancin' (white horses prancing)
Side by side
(You know that) Six white horses prancin' side by side
(Oh, won't you rock me, rock me Lord)
Oh rock me Lord, rock me Lord
Come in easy
I've got a home on the other side

Swing low, swing low and let me ride
Why don't you let me ride
Why don't you let me ride (Swing low)
Ride, ride, ride, ride

Well Ezekiel went down in the middle of the field
Said he saw an angel with a chariot wheel
Wasn't too particular about the chariot wheel
He just wanted to know how the chariot feels

Repeat Chorus

Swing low, swing low
Swing low, swing low
And let me ride
Why don't you let me ride (I want to ride)
Why don't you let me ride
Ride, ride, ride, ride

Well Ezekiel went out and he got on board (well, he got on board)
The chariot went a rockin' right on down the road (down the road)
He wasn't too particular 'bout the rocky road
He just wanted to lay down his heavy load

Repeat Chorus

I've got a home on the other side
I've got a home on the other side

I've got a home on the
I've got a home on the
(Repeat)
Solo during repeats:
Got a home on the other side
Got a home on the other side
No more pain on the other side
Well, there's no more sorrow on the other side
No more trouble on the other side
There won't be any tears on the other side
And no more fears on the other side
Got a home on the other side

I've got a home on the other side
I've got a home on the other side
I'm goin' home
