People Get Ready

Well, now 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

You don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord

People get ready

There's a train to Jordan

It's picking up passengers

From coast to coast

Faith is the key

Open the doors and board them

There's hope for all

Among those loved the most

And I hope that's you

And I hope that's me too

There ain't no hope

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

So 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

You don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord

You don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord

You don't need no ticket

I said Jesus is your ticket

You don't need no ticket

You just thank the Lord

People get ready
