Song by Curtis Mayfield And The Impressions<br /><br>

People get ready, there's a train a comin' <br>

You don't need no baggage, you just get on board <br>

All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin' <br>

Don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord<br>

<br>

People get ready for the train to Jordan <br>

It's picking up passengers from coast to coast <br>

Faith is the key, open the doors and board 'em <br>

There's hope for all among those loved the most.<br>

<br>

There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner<br>

Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own <br>

Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner<br>

For there's no hiding place against the Kingdom's throne<br>

<br>

So people get ready, there's a train a comin' <br>

You don't need no baggage, you just get on board <br>

All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin' <br>

Don't need no ticket, you just thank the Lord<br>

<br>
