People Get Ready
People get ready there's a train a-comin'
You don't need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear those diesels humming
You don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
People get ready for the train to Jordan
Pickin up passengers from coast to coast
Faith is key
Open the doors and board them
There's room for all
Among the loved the most
But there ain't no room
For the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind
To save his own
Have pity on those
Whose choices grow thinner
Cause there's no hiding place
From the kingdom's throne
People get ready
There's a train a-comin'
You don't need no baggage
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear those diesels humming
Don't need no ticket
You just thank the Lord, thank the Lord
You don't need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear those diesels humming
You don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
People get ready for the train to Jordan
Pickin up passengers from coast to coast
Faith is key
Open the doors and board them
There's room for all
Among the loved the most
But there ain't no room
For the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind
To save his own
Have pity on those
Whose choices grow thinner
Cause there's no hiding place
From the kingdom's throne
People get ready
There's a train a-comin'
You don't need no baggage
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear those diesels humming
Don't need no ticket
You just thank the Lord, thank the Lord
