When the Saints - Sara Groves[00:00:00]

Written by：D.r[00:00:00]

Lord I have a heavy burden of all I've seen and know[00:00:11]

It's more than I can handle[00:00:17]

But your word is burning like a fire shut up in my bones[00:00:21]

And I cannot let it go[00:00:28]

And when I'm weary and overwrought[00:00:31]

With so many battles left unfought[00:00:36]

I think of paul and silas in the prison yard[00:00:41]

I hear their song of freedom rising to the stars[00:00:47]

And when the saints go marching in[00:00:52]

I want to be one of them[00:00:57]

Lord it's all that I can't carry and cannot leave behind[00:01:03]

It all can overwhelm me[00:01:09]

But when I think of all who've gone before and lived a faithful life[00:01:13]

Their courage compels me[00:01:20]

And when I'm weary and overwrought[00:01:23]

With so many battles left unfought[00:01:28]

I think of paul and silas in the prison yard[00:01:33]

I hear their song of freedom rising to the stars[00:01:39]

I see the shepherd moses in the pharaoh's court[00:01:44]

I hear his call for freedom for the people of the lord[00:01:49]

And when the saints go marching in[00:01:54]

I want to be one of them[00:02:00]

And when the saints go marching in[00:02:05]

I want to be one of them[00:02:10]

I see the long quiet walk along the underground railroad[00:02:15]

I see the slave awakening to the value of her soul[00:02:20]

I see the young missionary and the angry spear[00:02:26]

I see his family returning with no trace of fear[00:02:31]

I see the long hard shadows of calcutta nights[00:02:36]

I see the sisters standing by the dying man's side[00:02:41]

I see the young girl huddled on the brothel floor[00:02:47]

I see the man with a passion come kicking down that door[00:02:52]

I see the man of sorrow and his long troubled road[00:02:57]

I see the world on his shoulders and my easy load[00:03:02]

And when the saints go marching in[00:03:08]

I want to be one of them[00:03:13]

And when the saints go marching in[00:03:18]

I want to be one of them[00:03:23]

I want to be one of them[00:03:28]

I want to be one of them[00:03:33]

I want to be one of them[00:03:39]
