THERE IS A TRAIN A COMING

In the nineteen sixties, there was a popular song being played on the radio entitled People Get Ready. It was a popular song but with a distinct religious, even Christian flavor.

For 2000 years now believers have eagerly awaited and anticipated the return of the Lord Jesus Christ. The widespread revelation of the Rapture of the Church is more recent in Christendom. The hope of His coming, though, has been persistent and is eminent. 

The Bible speaks of two categories of  people to be dealt with in the end-time. Sometimes referred to as sheep and goats, they are the sinners and the believers. Eternity for these two different groups will be vastly different.

I assure you that the current Corona-Virus (COVID-19) matter that has caused the whole world to be locked down is a wake-up call to the masses. If you are not already saved, you would be wise to give it some serious thought right now.

People Get Ready

People get ready, there’s a train comin’
You don’t need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin’
You don’t need no ticket you just thank the lord
People get ready, there’s a train to Jordan
Picking up passengers coast to coast
Faith is the key, open the doors and board them
There’s hope for all among those loved the most
There ain’t no room for the hopeless sinner whom would hurt all mankind
Just to save his own
Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner
For there is no hiding place against the kingdoms throne
People get ready there’s a train comin’
You don’t need no baggage, just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin’
You don’t need no ticket, just thank the lord.
