When the saints go marching in.

When the moon turns into blood. [Refrain]

When we crown Him King of kings,
Dear Lord I want to be in that number
When we crown Him King of kings. [Refrain]

When they gather ‘round the throne. [Refrain]

While the happy ages roll,
Dear Lord I want to be in that number
While the happy ages roll. [Refrain]
