There is a train that's bound for glory
And no one knows when it will come
But when it does I will be ready
And I will meet my lord above
And when I hear that whistle blowing
No longer will I roam
When the train that's bound for glory
Is calling me back home
So many years that I have wandered
Lost and alone out in the dark
They say that train can heal what's broken
And love will fill my empty heart
And when I hear that whistle blowing
No longer will I roam
When the train that's bound for glory
Is calling me back home
I never learned to trust nobody
I was too afraid to be let down
But when that train comes calling for me
I will lay all my burdens in the ground
And when I hear that whistle blowing
No longer will I roam
When the train that's bound for glory
Is calling me back home
And no one knows when it will come
But when it does I will be ready
And I will meet my lord above
And when I hear that whistle blowing
No longer will I roam
When the train that's bound for glory
Is calling me back home
So many years that I have wandered
Lost and alone out in the dark
They say that train can heal what's broken
And love will fill my empty heart
And when I hear that whistle blowing
No longer will I roam
When the train that's bound for glory
Is calling me back home
I never learned to trust nobody
I was too afraid to be let down
But when that train comes calling for me
I will lay all my burdens in the ground
And when I hear that whistle blowing
No longer will I roam
When the train that's bound for glory
Is calling me back home
