De gospel train is comin'
I hear it just at hand
I hear the cartwheels movin'
And rumbling through the land

I hear the bell and whistle
She's comin' 'round the curve
She's playin' all her steam
And power and strainin' every nerve

The fare is cheap and all go
The rich and poor are there
No second class aboard this train
No difference in the fare

She's nearin' now the station
Oh sinner, don't be vain
But come and get your ticket
And be ready for the train

Oh git on board, little children
Git on board, little children
Git on board, little children
There's room for many a more
