Marion Williams - Swing Low Sweet Chariot

[Florencione]

This is the best version of the song by a mile. Especially Johny Cash' version is crap.

LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[SHICOFF1]

I never heard of her, seems I missed a fine singer! Glad I got this now as it was sent by a friend.

[GermanOperaSinger]

The two high C's at 1:55 and 3:20 are as good as any I've ever heard. She was phenomenal!

[averyepperly]

Perhaps I'll listen to this on my death-bed. A taste of sweet heavens to come.

[TheAegreene]

This song and other originated in the cotton fields. As they work they sung these kinds of songs. They were messages, but were later gospel songs.

[Igele1000]

I am shure, this woman is the eight world wonder!

[PitboyPhotography]

so I'm listening ... and reading other comments ... then she hit (nee-nailed) "band of angels", holy crap. Call me a convert ... did the original traditional lyrics too ... very sweet.

[jesussaves7777]

From Gods Word the Bible: John 3:16

"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.

[guitarguy7170]

great voice, just wish the quality was better. Every time theres an s sound it sounds fuzzy.

[TheWordManifest]

lol cmon its that classic record playing sound effect :D

Praise the LORD. We have the internet to even hear this music for free.

[dontaecausey]

R.I.P to Marion Williams

[RastafariPoet]

Nah not opera, its soul.

[AuthenticFeirce]

She has an operatic voice.

[mrfirattas]

Beyonce sings this too with a bit more action.. But Miss Williams sings it old fashion and GREAT..! Wonder haw Mahalia Jackson will sing it..

[dontaecausey]

[dontaecausey]

THIS SONG IS SO SAD SHE GOT A GOOD VOICE

[paulotomaso]

Divine

the control of placement is just ridiculous

[alteregoash]

@paulotomaso yeah you nailed it there. Like she's playing a damn piano.

[GOSPELWARRIOR]

Gorgeous. She's the best. Bar none.

[DLuame]

Wow! Simply beautiful.
