LYRICS
Verse
I hear folks call him the ‘Pavement Parson’ cause he preaches to the sidewalk crowd
His clothes are old and ragged, reads the Good Book right out loud
Some will stop, most pass by, he never gets depressed
When I asked what keeps him going, he said, “Son, I’m heaven blessed”
Chorus
There’s a Glory Train waiting in the sky for me
Gonna carry me to salvation, set my burden free
There’s a Glory Train that we all can get on board
And we’ll ride to the promise land to be together for ever more
Verse
Well, I couldn’t help but wonder bout the story of his life
So I bought him a cup of coffee to warm his bones and we talked a while
He said he was married to an angel but in her last years, she took ill
Though her treatment left him destitute, her words console him still
Chorus
She said there’s a Glory Train waiting in the sky for me
Gonna carry me to salvation, set my burden free
There’s a Glory Train that we all can get on board
And we’ll ride to the promise land to be together for ever more
Bridge
I decided right then and there to be more thankful for what I have
Get my heart and mind prepared to take that journey and not look back
Do all that I can to board that
Chorus
Glory Train waiting in the sky for me
Gonna carry me to salvation, set my burden free
There’s a Glory Train that we all can get on board
And we’ll ride to the promise land to be together
On that Glory Train waiting in the sky for me
Gonna carry me to salvation, set my burden free
There’s a Glory Train that we all can get on board
And we’ll ride to the promise land to be together for ever more
Ever more
