thru the years on the radio - train songs come & go
orange blossom special, rock island line, city of new orleans in it's time
the midnight special's sad refrain - steel rails - the long black train
memories erupt like a steam-whistle blast - now one last train's rollin past
and it's a-comin' fast
verse 1
Here comes the salvation train won't you get on board.....
The salvationtrain's gonna carry your load....
Take you to heaven where you want to go...
Get on board the salvation train...
chorus
You can't buy your way with your silver and gold..
You can't pay your way with your works I am told..
But if your a sinner and your heart is cold
This trains for you ------
Verse 2
On the salvation train God's the engineer....
He's called out to all so that all can hear..
your heart's the station he's stopping near..
Get on board the salvation train...
inst break
chorus
You can't buy your way with your silver and gold..
You can't pay your way with your works I am told..
But if your a sinner and your heart is cold
This trains for you ------
Verse 3
On the salvation train the tickets are free....
It don't cost a thing for you and for me..
That's why Jesus died on Calvary..
Tickets free on the salvation train...
verse 4
It's the salvation train won't you get on board..
The salvation train we're gonna meet with the Lord..
He paid the price no one could afford..
Get on board the salvation train...
Get on board the salvation train...
come on get on the salvation train...
