When the Saints Go Marching In Lyrics

We are trav'ling in the footsteps
Of those who've gone before
And we'll all be reunited
On a new and sunlit shore
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Oh Lord how I want to be in that number
When the, saints go marching in
And when the sun begins to shine
And when the sun begins to shine
Oh Lord, how I want to be in that number
When the sun begins to shine
Oh, when the trumpet sounds the call
Oh, when the trumpet sounds the call
Lord, how I want to be in that number
When the trumpet sounds the call


Some say this world of trouble
Is the only one we need
But I'm waiting for that morning
When the new one is revealed
Oh, when the new one is revealed
Oh, when the new one is revealed
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the new one is revealed
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Lord how I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
