People Get Ready
Journey of Faith: Embracing Hope and Unity in Ziggy Marley's Anthem
Lyrics
People get ready
People are advised to prepare.
There's a train a comin'
There's an opportunity or significant event approaching.
You don't need no baggage you just get on board
No material possessions are necessary, just be ready.
All you need is faith
Faith is the only requirement.
To hear the diesel comin'
A metaphorical diesel engine signifies something significant approaching.
Don't need no ticket you just thank the Lord
No special conditions, just gratitude is needed.
People get ready
Reiteration of the call for readiness.
Train to Jordan
Reference to the destination as Jordan, symbolizing a spiritual journey.
Picking up passengers from coast to coast
People from all over are joining this journey.
Faith is key
Emphasis on faith as a crucial element.
Open the doors and board them
Welcoming the participants.
There's hope for all among the love the most
Hope is available for everyone, especially those filled with love.
There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner
No place for those who harm others for personal gain.
Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own soul
Warning against selfish actions with disregard for others.
Have pity on those whose choices grow thinner
Sympathy for those making choices that lead to despair.
There ain't no hiding place from the Kingdom's throne
No escape from facing consequences in the divine realm.
People get ready
Reiteration of the call for readiness.
There's a train a comin'
Emphasis on the approaching significant event.
You don't need no baggage you just get on board
No need for excess baggage, just be prepared.
All you need is faith
Reaffirmation that faith is the sole requirement.
To hear the diesel comin'
Metaphorical representation of the approaching event.
Don't need no ticket you just thank the Lord
Expressing gratitude is sufficient, no elaborate preparations needed.
There's a train there's a train there's a train comin' people
Repeated encouragement to join the journey.
There's a train there's a train there's a train comin' people
-There's a train there's a train there's a train comin' people
-Just get on board
-There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner
Reiteration of the consequences for those harming others for personal gain.
Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own soul
Repeated warning against selfish actions.
Have pity on those whose choices grow thinner
Compassion for those facing difficult choices.
There ain't no hiding place from the Kingdom's throne
Highlighting the inevitability of facing consequences in the divine realm.
