Talk about sufferin' here below and let's keep a lovin' Jesus
Talk about suffering here below and let's keep a followin' Jesus
Oh can't you hear it father? And don't you want to go?
And leave this world of sorrow and trouble here below.
The gospel train is coming, now don't you want to go?
And leave this world of sorrow and trouble here below.
Talk about sufferin' here below and let's keep a lovin' Jesus
Talk about suffering here below and let's keep a followin' Jesus
Oh don't you hear it mother? And don't you want to go?
And leave this world of sorrow and trouble here below.
The gospel train is coming, now don't you want to go?
And leave this world of sorrow and trouble here below.
Talk about sufferin' here below and let's keep a lovin' Jesus
Talk about suffering here below and let's keep a followin' Jesus
Oh don't you hear it brothers? And don't you want to go?
And leave this world of sorrow and trouble here below.
The gospel train is coming, now don't you want to go?
And leave this world of sorrow and trouble here below.
Oh don't you hear it sisters? And don't you want to go?
And leave this world of sorrow and trouble here below.
The gospel train is coming, now don't you want to go?
And leave this world of sorrow and trouble here below.
Talk about sufferin' here below and let's keep a lovin' Jesus
Talk about suffering here below and let's keep a followin' Jesus
