People get ready, there's a train a-coming,
You don't need no baggage, you just get on board,
All you need is faith to hear that diesel humming,
Don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord.
People get ready for the train to Jordan, picking up passengers coast to coast,
Faith is the key, open the doors and board them,
There's hope for all among those loved the most.
You know, there ain't no room for the hopeless sinner who would hurt all mankind just to save his own,
Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner, for there's no hiding place against the kingdom's throne.
People get ready, there's a train a-coming,
You don't need no baggage, no, you just get on board,
All you need is faith to hear the diesel's humming,
Don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord.
