Lyrics

Well I look out 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.

Swing Low, Sweet Chariot, Coming for to carry
me home
Swing low, Sweet Chariot, coming for to carry me home

Swing Low, Sweet Chariot, Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Swing low Sweet Chariot coming for to carry me home.

Lord I want to see my brother and my sister too, Lord I want to see my loved ones, I want to see You too.

Well 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.

Swing Low, Sweet Chariot, Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Swing low Sweet Chariot coming for to carry me home.

Everything is getting clearer as I approach Your throne, everything is getting clearer, Lord I love You so...

Swing Low, Sweet Chariot, Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Swing low Sweet Chariot coming for to carry me home.

Swing Low, Sweet Chariot, Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Swing low Sweet Chariot coming for to carry me home.











Good attempt at a ol timey classic with a Bob Dylan-Greatful Deadish quality to the sound and vocal performance. A minimalist approach but I kinda dug it. I liked the drum sound and the trippy little parts after the chorus'. Cool Man!

Here's a new twist on an old gospel tune from a rock music perspective. The artist adds in some of his own creative lines as well. The song has a nice vibe to it. Nice outro!

this is not the kind of genre that i listen on a regular basis, but i have to sazy that i kiked the rhythm and i enjoy it a lot!
