Can you hear the whistle sound
For them souls Heaven bound?
Get onboard the great glory ride,
Set your earthly shackles aside.

The grand train will leave one day
Boarding Christians along the way,
Roaring down those shining tracks,
Bound for Heaven it won’t be back.

Get your ticket while you still can
If you want a ride to glory-land,
We’ll meet at the Lord’s station,
There’s no time left for hesitation.

This long black train has no gears
It’s full throttle ahead leaving here,
Gabriel will be our brave engineer,
We’ll depart amidst angel cheers.

The price of the ticket is paid for you,
Jesus died on the cross for sins you do,
Surrender to The Redeemer your all
Before you miss the last boarding call.

We’ll glide on the ride to Heaven’s shore
Where we will endure troubles no more,
So shed your shackles that tightly bind,
Get onboard before you are left behind.
