Sweet Chariot Oh my darlin’ I have searched the desert and the sky Just to find you and take the mourning from my eyes When I lost you I suffered and you were sanctified We are all born to live we are all bound to die Chorus: Swing down sweet chariot the flesh will fall and the bones will rot But from my sorrow you’ll carry me not My heart is bound my soul is chained to the rock Rock of ages cleft for me I swung down my hammer out in Joshua Tree It rang on the mountain and rolled to the sea And it will ring from the rock Oh my children sorrow shall come to each of us All our trials will soon lay buried in the dust Long forgotten but quick as silver turns to rust Love is found when the heart is lost Chorus by: José Duarte
