That Glory Bound Train Songtext
von Rose Maddox

Come and listen, won′t you, brother?
Have you heard or don't you know?
There′s a train that's bound for glory
Will you ride it when it goes?
Have you made all preparations?
Reservations all complete?
When you hear that whistle blowing
Will you be there at your seat?

Has your ticket yet been purchased
For that glory bound train?
Oh, will you ride? (That glory bound train)
Oh, will you ride? (That glory bound train)
Will you ride that train to glory by and by?


Oh, the headlight will be gleaming
Jesus is the engineer
Will you ride that train to glory
Or will you linger here?
When its golden bell starts ringing
When He calls out, "All aboard"
Will you have your ticket ready
For your Savior and your Lord?

Has your ticket yet been purchased
For that glory bound train?
Oh, will you ride? (That glory bound train)
Oh, will you ride? (That glory bound train)
Will you ride that train to glory by and by?

When through space we will be traveling
Leave this wicked world of hate
Then we'll know our destination′s
Just beyond those pearly gates
There we know there′ll be no sorrow
As on earth we have endured
We shall dwell within His kingdom
Buy your ticket and be pure

Has your ticket yet been purchased
For that glory bound train?
Oh, will you ride? (That glory bound train)
Oh, will you ride? (That glory bound train)
Will you ride that train to glory by and by?


When you hear it in the distance
Hear its mighty drivers roll
Just a little while to tarry
Then we'll walk those streets of gold
Will those loved ones who have journeyed
Just a little while ago
Meet you there at Heaven′s station
When that last long whistle blows?

Has your ticket yet been purchased
For that glory bound train?
Oh, will you ride? (That glory bound train)
Oh, will you ride? (That glory bound train)
Will you ride that train to glory by and by?
Will you ride that train to glory by and by?
