| Lyrics: | Frank: One of the truly American forms of music is the Negro Spiritual. Full of warmth and
sadness,
they always strive for understanding and help. So that here now is one of the finest
of Negro
Spirituals, arranged by Bobby Tucker and Cy Oliver, the traditional Swing Low Sweet
Chariot.
Swing low, sweet chariot, comin' for to carry me home!
Swing low, sweet
chariot, comin' for to carry me home!
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!
Swing low, sweet chariot, comin' for to carry me home!
Swing low, sweet
chariot, comin' for to carry me home!
If you get there before I do, comin' for to carry me
home,
Tell all my frien's that I'm coming too, comin' for to carry me home.
Swing low, sweet
chariot, comin' for to carry me home!
Swing low, sweet chariot, comin' for to carry me home! |
