Going Home in the Chariot

Representative Text

Refrain:
Going home in the chariot in the morning,
Going home in the chariot in the morning,
Going home in the chariot in the morning,
Going home in the chariot in the morning.

1 O never you mind what Satan say,
Going home in the chariot in the morning.
He never did teach one sinner to pray,
Going home in the chariot in the morning. [Refrain]

2 O sinner-man you better pray,
Going home in the chariot in the morning.
For judgment is coming every day,
Going home in the chariot in the morning. [Refrain]

3 O mourner, O mourner, you must believe,
Going home in the chariot in the morning.
And the grace of God you will receive,
Going home in the chariot in the morning. [Refrain]
