Come all you broken hearted, come and lay your burden down
|
Come kings and queens, come royalty surrender up your crown
|
Come empty-handed come with nothing of your own to claim
|
Come naked, poor, come like a child to ride the orphan train
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Come ride, ride on the orphan train
|
Put your ear to the track, you can hear your name
|
Come ride, ride on the orphan train, it'll take you all the way home
|
The way is narrow, it is steep that brings you to the door
|
But love awaits there to embrace your heart forevermore
|
[Repeat Chorus]
|
|
Come you abandoned, you forsaken
|
Friendless and alone, come refugees left homesick for
|
Some place you've never known
|
Here princes, paupers, criminals and saints are all the same
|
No more or less than God's beloved child aboard this train
|
|
[Repeat Chorus twice]
|
|
It'll take you all the way home
|
It's gonna take you all the way home
|
