its such a funny feeling

as i walk into the streets

empty eyes on people's faces

makes me sad

when they look at me



i know they're only strangers

i might never see 'em again

but it's more than my desire

to tell them

they're riding away

on a hellbound train



heading for the wrong destination

all like sheep have gone astray

people passing through the station

with their luggage

full of shame



different names and different places

but the song remains the same

the heart of man through the ages

neeeds to be

forgiven and free



and i'm filled with a deep compassion

that my Father's given me

i will always preach the gospel

to the ends of the earth

'till everyone has heard Jesus is the way

to a heavenbound train
