D Bm G D 4 x

D     Bm        G    D
People get ready, there's a train a coming;
         Bm        G   D
you don't need no baggage, you just get on board
        Bm        G    D
All you need is faith to hear the diesels humming;
       Bm        G     D
don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord

D Bm G D

D     Bm      G    D
People get ready for the train to Jordan;
        Bm       G    D
it's picking up passengers from coast to coast
       Bm      G     D
Faith is the key, open the doors and board 'em;
           Bm     G     D
there's hope for all among those loved the most.

D Bm G D

D       Bm      G    D
There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner;
        Bm         G    D
who would hurt all mankind just to save his own
       Bm     G      D
Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner;
        Bm            G     D
for there's no hiding place against the Kingdom's throne

  D     Bm        G    D
So, people get ready, there's a train a coming;
         Bm        G   D
you don't need no baggage, you just get on board
        Bm        G    D
All you need is faith to hear the diesels humming;
       Bm        G     D
don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord

         Bm        G     D
You don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord
