We are trav’ling in the footsteps
of those who’ve gone before
but we’ll all be reunited
on a new and sunlit shore.
Some say this world of trouble
is the only one we need
but I’m waiting for that morning
when the new world is revealed.
Refrain:
Oh
when the Saints go marching in
oh
when the Saints go marching in
oh Lord
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
I want to be in that number
when the sun begins to shine.
Oh
when the trumpet sounds a call
oh
when the trumpet sounds a call
oh Lord
I want to be in that number
when the trumpet sounds a call.
Oh
when the new world is revealed
oh
when the new world is revealed
oh Lord
I want to be in that number
when the new world is revealed.
