Come all you broken hearted
Come and lay your burden down
Come kings and queens
Come royalty surrender up your crownCome empty handed
Come with nothing of your own to claim
Come naked poor come like a child
To ride the orphan train
Come ride ride on the orphan trainPut 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 forevermoreCome 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
Come ride ride on the orphan train
