[Verse 1]
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 the diesels hummin'
You don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
I say you just thank the Lord
You just thank the Lord
[Verse 2]
So, people get ready for the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers coast-to-coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board 'em
There's hope for all, among those loved the most
You know they've been loved the most
They've been loved the most
[Verse 3]
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
You know there's no hiding place
There's no hiding place
[Verse 4]
So, 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 the diesels hummin'
You don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
I say you just thank the Lord
You just thank the Lord
[Verse 5]
That's why I'm here to say that I believe, I believe
We're gonna make it one day
Brothers, I believe
I believe, I believe, I believe
Sure enough, I true, true believe
