When The Saints by Sara Groves
When The Saints
VERSE 1
D A D
Lord I have a heavy burden of all I've seen and know
A
It's more than I can handle
D A D
But your word is burning like a fire shut up in my bones
A
and I can't let it go
PRE-CHORUS
Emin7 G
And when I'm weary and overwrought
Bmin E
with so many battles left unfought
CHORUS
G D G D
I think of Paul and Silas in the prison yard
G D A
I hear their song of freedom rising to the stars
Bmin A G
And when the Saints go marching in
D G
I want to be one of them
VERSE 2
D A D
Lord it's all that I can't carry and cannot leave behind
A
It often overwhelms me
D A D
But when I think of all who've gone before and lived the faithful life
A
their courage compells me
PRE-CHORUS
Emin7 G
And when I'm weary and overwrought
Bmin E
with so many battles left unfought
CHORUS
G D G D
I think of Paul and Silas in the prison yard
G D A
I hear their song of freedom rising to the stars
G D G D
I see the shepherd Moses in the Pharohs court
G D A
I hear his call for freedom for the people of the Lord
Bmin A G
And when the Saints go marching in
D G
I want to be one of them
Bmin A G
And when the Saints go marching in
D G
I want to be one of them
BRIDGE
G D G D
I see the long quiet walk along the Underground Railroad
G D A
I see the slave awakening to the value of her soul
G D G D
I see the young missionary and the angry spear
G D A
I see his family returning with no trace of fear
G D G D
I see the long hard shadows of Calcutta nights
G D A
I see the sisters standing by the dying man's side
G D G D
I see the young girl huddled on the brothel floor
G D A
I see the man with a passion come and kicking down the door
G D G D
I see the man of sorrows and his long troubled road
G D A
I see the world on his shoulders and my easy load
Bmin A G
And when the Saints go marching in
D G
I want to be one of them
Bmin A G
And when the Saints go marching in
D G
I want to be one of them
D G
I want to be one of them
