The gospel train’s a’comin’
I hear it just at hand
I hear the car wheel rumblin’
And rollin’ thro’ the land

Get on board little children
Get on board little children
Get on board little children
There's room for many more

I hear the train a’comin'
She's comin' round the curve
She's loosened all her steam and brakes
And strainin' ev'ry nerve

Get on board little children
Get on board little children
Get on board little children
There's room for many more

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