And when the sun begins to shine
When the sun begins to shine
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

Oh, when the moon turns red with blood
When the mood turns red with blood
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

Oh, on that Hallelujah day
On that Hallelujah day
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

Oh, when the trumpet sounds the call
Oh, when the trumpet sounds the call
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

Some say this world of trouble
Is the only thing we need
But I'm waiting for that morning
When the true world is revealed

When that revelation comes
When the revelation comes
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

When the rich go out and work
When the rich go out and work
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

When the air is pure and clean
When the air is pure and clean
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

Oh, when we all have food to eat
When we all have food to eat
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in

When our leaders learn to cry
When our leaders learn to cry
Oh Lord, I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in
