People Get Ready
Embrace the Journey: Ladysmith's Call to Faith and Redemption
Lyrics
People get ready
People are preparing
There's a train a-coming
A metaphorical train is approaching, symbolizing a significant event
You don't need no baggage
No need for unnecessary burdens
You just get on board
Just be ready to join
All you need is faith
Faith is the only requirement
To hear diesels humming
To perceive a powerful force or change
You don't need no ticket
No formalities required
You just thank the Lord
Express gratitude for the opportunity
Yeah yeah yeah
Repetition emphasizing readiness and urgency
People get ready
Reiteration of the need for preparation
For the train to Jordan
The destination is symbolically Jordan, suggesting a spiritual journey
Picking up passengers
Gathering individuals from various places
From coast to coast
Across the entire expanse
Faith is the key
Faith is crucial for participation
Open the doors and board them
Open your heart and accept others
There's room for all
There's space for everyone, including those who've been loved and lost
Among the loved and lost
Highlighting inclusivity
Now there ain't no room
No place for those who have lost hope
For the hopeless sinner
An emphasis on the challenges faced by humanity
Whoa, hard on mankind
Struggling against the difficulties imposed by humans
Just to save his own
A plea for compassion despite human tendencies for self-preservation
Have pity on those
Show mercy to those with fewer opportunities
Whose chances are thinner
Those with slim chances
Cause there's no hiding place
Nowhere to escape the judgment or divine authority
From the Kingdom's Throne
Reference to a higher power
Oh people get ready
Reiteration of the call to readiness
There's a train a-coming
The approaching event is emphasized again
You don't need no baggage
No need for excess baggage
You just get on board
Emphasis on simplicity in joining
All you need is faith
Repeating the importance of faith
To hear diesels a- humming
Suggesting a powerful and imminent change
You don't need no ticket
No formal barriers to entry
You just thank the Lord
Gratitude for the opportunity presented
Yeah yeah yeah
Reiteration and emphasis on readiness
I'm getting ready
The speaker is personally getting prepared
I - I'm ready yeah yeah yeah
Expressing immediate readiness
Oh I'm getting ready oh - oh
Continued personal readiness
I'm ready yeah
Reiteration of personal preparedness
