Swing Low, Sweet Chariot Lyrics Video

Описание: Swing low, Sweet chariot lyrics. The song was first formally published in the 1870s for the Fisk University Jubilee Singers after being written by Wallace Willis, a Native American slave before the American Civil War. The all-black choir toured the US and Europe and staged concerts that helped spread spirituals both nationwide and overseas. In the following decades the anthem was adopted by choirs in the United Kingdom, but in the 1950s it became a symbol of the American civil rights movement as black people in the US fought for equality.
However, it also came to be a common rugby song thanks to the rude hand gestures that run with the lyrics, regularly sung after matches across England and adopted by a number of clubs as a tradition that continues today.

(CHORUS) Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home! Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home!
1. I looked over Jordan an' what did I see, Comin' for to carry me home? A band of angels comin' after me, Comin' for to carry me home. Repeat Chorus: Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home! Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home!
2. If you get there before I do, Comin' for to carry me home, Tell all my friends I'm comin' too, Comin' for to carry me home. Repeat Chorus: Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home! Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home!
3. Sometime I'm up, sometimes I'm down, Comin' for to carry me home. But still my soul feels heavenly bound. Comin' for to carry me home. Repeat Chorus: Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home! Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home!
