People Get Ready
Get On Board: Embrace Faith and Hope in Human Nature's 'People Get Ready'
Lyrics
People get ready
People are preparing for something significant.
There's a train a-comin'
There is an approaching event or change.
You don't need no baggage
No material possessions are required.
Just get on board
Just be ready to participate.
All you need is faith
Faith is the only requirement.
To hear the diesel hummin'
Symbolic reference to a train's engine sound.
You don't need no ticket
No need for a physical ticket.
Just thank the Lord
Express gratitude for the opportunity.
People get ready
Reiteration of readiness and preparation.
For the train to Jordan
Reference to a destination called Jordan.
It's pickin' up passengers
The event is attracting participants.
From coast to coast
Participants are joining from all over.
Faith is the key
Emphasis on the importance of faith.
Open the doors and board on
Encouragement to open oneself to the event.
There's room for all
There's room for everyone, especially those who love deeply.
Amongst who loves the most
Highlighting the inclusivity of the event.
There ain't no room
No space for those without hope.
For the hopeless sinner
Describing a person who harms others for personal gain.
Who'd hurt all man kind
Illustrating the severity of such actions.
Just to save his own
Reflecting on the consequences for the selfish.
Pitied are those
Expressing compassion for those facing challenges.
Whose chances grow thinner
Chances of redemption are diminishing.
There's no hiding place
No escape from accountability in a higher realm.
In the kingdom's throne
Reference to a divine judgment seat.
People get ready
Reiteration of the impending event.
There's a train a-comin'
Repeating the idea of an approaching event.
You don't need no baggage
No need for burdens or excess baggage.
Just get on board
Emphasis on the simplicity of participation.
All you need is faith
Underlining the importance of faith once again.
To hear the diesel hummin'
Reiteration of the symbolic train sound.
You don't need no ticket
No external requirements for entry.
Just thank the Lord
Expressing gratitude for the opportunity to participate.
