People Get Ready
People get ready
There's a train a-coming
You don't need no baggage
You just get on board
All you need is some faith
To hear the diesel humming
Don't need a ticket
You just thank the Lord
There ain't no room
For the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind
Just to save his own
Have pity on those
Whose chance is growin' thinner
There's no hiding place
Against the Kingdom's throne
People get ready
There's a train a-coming
You don't need a ticket
You just thank the Lord
(Alt.:
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 and lost)
There's a train a-coming
You don't need no baggage
You just get on board
All you need is some faith
To hear the diesel humming
Don't need a ticket
You just thank the Lord
There ain't no room
For the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind
Just to save his own
Have pity on those
Whose chance is growin' thinner
There's no hiding place
Against the Kingdom's throne
People get ready
There's a train a-coming
You don't need a ticket
You just thank the Lord
(Alt.:
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 and lost)
