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
Oh, oh, get ready, oh
Oh, you gotta board it
Oh, get ready
People get ready, oh
