                    People get ready, 
                    for the train to Jordan. 
                    Picking up passengers, 
                    from coast to coast. 
                    Faith is the key, 
                    opens the door stil boarded. 
                    There's hope for all, 
                    Amongst those loved the most. 
 
 
                    Bb             Gm7 
                    There ain't no room, 
                            Eb       Bb 
                    for the hopeless sinner. 
                          Bb          Gm7 
                    Who'd hurt all mankind, 
                            Eb       Bb 
                    just to save his own. 
                    Bb         Gm7 
                    Pitied are those, 
                          Eb           Bb 
                    whose chances grow thinner. 
                                   Dm7       Gm7 
                    'Cause there's no hiding place, 
                                Eb        Bb 
                    Amongst the kingdom's throne. 
 
 
                    Now people get ready, 
                    there's a train a'comin. 
                    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.
