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

[00:00:00] Written by：D.r

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:20] Their courage compels me

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[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] I want to be one of them
