Lyrics

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 the diesels humming

Don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord


People get ready

For the train to Jordan

Picking up passengers

From coast to coast

Faith is the key

Open the doors and board them

There's room for all

Among the loved the most


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 are thinner

Cause there's no hiding place

From the Kingdom's Throne


So people get ready

For the train a-comin'

You don't need no baggage

You just get on board

All you need is faith

To hear the diesels humming

Don't need no ticket

You just thank, you just thank the Lord


Yeah

Oh

Yeah

Oh


I'm getting ready

I'm getting ready

This time I'm ready

This time I'm ready
