I am just a weary pilgrim
Plotting through this
world of sin
Getting ready for that city
When the saints go
marching in
When the saints
go marching in
When the saints go
marching in
Lord I want to be
in that number
When the saints go
marching in
My father loved The Saviour
What a soldier he had been
But his steps would be
more steady
When the saints go
marching in
And mother
May God bless her
I can see her now as then
With a robe of white
around her
When the saints go
marching in
When the saints
go marching in
When the saints go
marching in
Lord I want to be
in that number
When the saints go
marching in
Up there I'll see
The Saviour
Who redeemed my soul
from sin
With extended hands
He'll greet me
When the saints go
marching in
When the saints
go marching in
When the saints go
marching in
Lord I want to be
in that number
When the saints go
marching in
Oh when the saints
go marching in
Oh when the saints go
marching in
Lord I want to be
in that number
When the saints go
marching in
Lord I want to be
in that number
When the saints go
marching in
