Intro: (moderately) Verse 1: Mama always reminds me that we?re only passing through The treasures of this world are not for us to hold onto She says the way we?re headed will take us where we?re bound And we cannot lay our journey down Because all God?s children need traveling shoes To walk the road that?s narrow but it?s true We can?t stop here we?re just passing through That?s why all God?s children need Traveling shoes Verse 2: Bags are packed and waiting and I?m headed for the door The train is at the station, got my ticket and I?ll board The brake-man swings his lantern lit with never-ending love And mama I can?t thank you near enough Chorus Bridge: Chorus
