People Get Ready

Do you ever forget?
What it all means, why we're here?
Do you ever get busy, and loose sight of what it really is?

And when you do
How are you reminded?
A slap on the back, a gentle reminder?
A loss or a pain, to remind you again.

And how simple it is,
To find those reminders.
As simple as the message
And as easy to overlook

It was right there, in the most unlikely of places
Did you get the nudge, the hint, the gentle reminder?
In the most unlikely of place
Glory is unveiled, yet again

In the most unlikely of places
People Get Ready -- lyrics:

There ain’t no room for the hopeless sinner

Who would hurt all mankind

Just to save his own

Leave me now

Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner

For there is no hiding place against the kingdoms throne

So 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 diesel hummin’

You don’t need no ticket, you just thank the lord.
