I remember sitting in Church as a child listening to this thinking it sounded really good. Now as an adult struggling with alchohol this song means so so much more to me. I'm writing this with tears in my eyes and a guitar in my lap. Thank you God for helping me get this far. Please pray for me. I need all the help I can get.
Brother, you're not alone. Even the Apostles struggled - but just like them, you have been chosen. They did not chose to follow Christ and be Children of God - it was God/Christ Who chose them. Just like them, you have been chosen. If left to us, we'd remain rebels/enemies to God/Christ. But by His grace and mercy we are justified righteous through Christ Jesus atonement (Blood of Christ) of the Just for the unjust and by believing the Word of God is true and the person (God in the flesh (incarnate) and works of Christ (birth, death, burial and resurrection), Faith (trust) in God/Christ (and promises), and Hope (His return and eternal life worshipping Him in His Kingdom). Read Ephesians.. And remember - we were all DEAD in our trespasses and sin - but by and through the person and works of Christ we have been redeemed.
This was my 102 year old Grampa's favorite song! He passed away in October 2015 and we (his family) played it at his funeral. He was a very humble & traditional Native American man...he knew he was going to heaven.
it may sound stupid, but this song brings tears to my eyes. I served my country, and I spent a long time what I call " in the devils pocket ". and the Lord delivered me. . He can deliver you from whatever it is my friends. give it over to god.
i was the passenger... but god saved me from the route to hell.. by going to the priest to receive baptism to clean my soul now i'm on the stairway to heaven, if i mess up i go to confession now im blessed and god will be with me through rough times
@@mattneal4309 respectfully sir, baptism is for the forgiveness of sins. This is the whole reason why Jesus died on the cross. Without baptism in Jesus’ name, we’re not washed from our sins. Beware that you’re not among the people whom this proverb applies to. «There is a generation that are pure in their own eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness.» Proverbs 30:12 KJV
I Road that long black train and had a lot of sorrows and i had a lot of pain,but then one night as my life was about to crash and burn,Jesus met me on the way.Thank you Jesus for mercy and grace on me an old sinner.
I think everyone would agree with me in saying this is one of the greatest songs out there. This song just has so much meaning and truth behind it. CAN I GET AN AMEN
This song gives me the chills everytime I hear it because I think I have been going down the wrong path!!! I feel like it's too late but i'm only 19 and I've always heard it's never to late to change!!! I should get down and pray a long and sincere prayer!!!
gives me chills, too. i rode that train for awhile around 2007, but couldn't quite take my eyes off the skies... one prayer a couple years later changed everything for me. took awhile, but that was more my own stubbornness when God would present something to me that my sinful, self-righteous heart didn't want to hear. i stuck with God regardless and after 7 years of nonsense i'm finally, FINALLY free from it as of September 2014 and i'm both feeling better now and doing a bit better every day. "cling to the Father and His holy name, and don't go riding on that long black train." i'm 20 by the way.
Chris Trompeter, sorry that went off before I could complete what I wanted to say. anew... to walk in HIS path for you. To destroy everything that will destroy you, to take control of your mind, heart, soul and spirit do that there is nothing but The SPIRIT OF CHRIST in you.
This is my daddys favorite song, before he passed away 3 years ago. Today's his birthday and I decided to play his favorite song for him ❤️ happy birthday daddy! The big 52 in heaven drink your cold ones
I grew up in a very Christian area and family, and though today I am not religious in any way, songs like these are comforting and I can still appreciate the music.
Paige, go to CHRIST WHO Died that we may get to heaven- believe me, there is a heaven and a hell. That we may be forgiven of all our sins if we make HIM our personal saviour and live a fulfilling, joyful life in HIM- instead of breaking down or despairing when troubles hit us. Seek after HIM and you will be found of HIM- don’t be found on the long black train . For GOD Made CHRIST, WHO never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with GOD through CHRIST. (2 Cor. 5:21, NLT) The day of salvation and surrender to CHRIST is today. Please see 2Corinthians 6:2 2 For HE says: “In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you.” Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. Also please read Hebrews2:3 reproduced below: 3 How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, dwhich at the first began to be spoken by the LORD, and was confirmed to us by those who heard HIM, Paige, prayerfully read the New Testament and ask GOD to speak to you through the verses . HE Loves you and is waiting with open arms to receive you into HIS kingdom.
Im happy that they still bring you comfort. As someone who actually came to Christ late in life, I respect your decision and I hope that life is peaceful for you and you never lose sight of what gives you light, what is good and right, and that you always walk a path that in the end will make you proud.
I'm totally with you here, I've known this song all my life but as a non religious adult I think it still has a strong political reading- the creep of fascism is attractive to many people in this country and it looks a return to glory for them. The train would pass on by if not for all the people hopping on board.
Turner's rich bass voice is a treat, and "Long Black Train," an instant country classic. The choice to drop all musical accompaniment when the singer announces the 😈 devil's presence is a nice touch.
It’s hard to believe this was a hit on country radio and TV. Today, it takes much more courage to proclaim your faith. GOD is good All if the time. Bless you
It is never too late to get off the train! So I saved it on RUclips because my copy of Josh’s CD went all crazy. I have witnessed miracles through Christ’s love and sacrifice by earnestly asking for forgiveness of my sins and transgressions. Get a Holy Bible, and find a Church you believe in and watch what happens!
My Mamaws funeral was today. This was her favorite song. I learned it for her when I was a little girl and used to play it for her. They sang it today at her service and I swear she was there clapping along.
Hi everyone. I just wanted to chime in and say I used to sit very close to the engineer of the Long Black Train. For some background, I was swearing every other word at ten years old. Also, I was so far away from God. But, about three years ago, I renewed my faith and have decided to become a preacher. As well, it has been about three years since I swore last. Victory in Jesus! He saved me from myself and I thank Him! May God Bless you all!
I don't even like country. Never did, but this is a great song with a great message. I was on that train for most of my life. When the lord pulled me off it, I never looked back.
The churches will slowly die. But God lives on through the purest expressions of belief and love like this one. I guess there are some that might call me dumb or whatever, but find God and Jesus on your own terms. We'll all see Him one day. Take your time with spirituality, don't ever rush things. Just make sure you take the time to explore. And take the time for yourself as well. Try and keep love in perspective...dogma and other influences easily fog your vision. Doesn't mean you should shut off from the world and sequester yourself in religion, I've seen so many people do it. But just live life in love as much as you can. You'll eventually see some sort of light at the end of the tunnel. God bless.
I have to admit I've never been a big country music fan but when my step mother sang this song during our family Karaoke night I fell in love with it. When she asks for song requests I always tell her to sing this. Just a meaningful, powerful, loving song!
A really good song sung by Josh Turner. The message behind this song tells the absolute truth. We need to turn to the direction that leads to the Light of God and we need to turn away from the darkness of the devil.
I completely agree, the background of this song is clear when you listen to it, you always need to stick with God and everything will be absolutely fine.
Anytime I sing this song, I break down in tears. My grandmother and I would listen to his album and specifically this song on our way to her home 2 hours from mine everytime she came to get me. Its my way to cope with the loss and remember her, since I don't ever show that at the funeral.
In my experience this song really helps me with what I've been thru it helped me when I was getting off drugs and praise the good lord I've been clean for 6 years now
I want to dedicate this song to my 99 year old Pappaw . He served our country in the Navy and spent his life working in a steel mill to support our family . thank you Pappaw for always reminding me that I can find love and forgiveness in Christ.
This song was played at my grandpa funeral. Miss him more and more everyday. Never thought I wouldnt get to tell him goodbye or i love you one last time. This world dosent seem the same without him. I wish he didnt have to go,But god calls the good ones. Fly high grandpa. Forever in my heart and never forgotten. I love you and hope you know that 💔😭
I lost my grandpa too, and this song always makes me think of him. He was such a huge presence for me and helped to instill my faith. But they say if the ones who've passed on are still in your heart, and live on through your memories and stories, part of them is still alive!
I Can't I won't I can't do this alone I need Jesus in my life I have no strength I have no anything without him Christ I need to have strength Thank you father Please bless everyone and help them to feel your love and joy Amen
As a Christian i fell daily i sin daily but theres power in the name of Jesus we need more and more music like this and more christians to come together and speak the word of God i myself have problems dailey and sometimes i wanna curl up in a ball in cry but Jesus is my life wraths he my savior and he is that way towards everyone read your bible daily love him worship the true God repent and be baptized and the name of Jesus Christ
Is it weird that im pagan and still love gospel country i love artists like josh turner and randy travis always be proud of your beliefs no matter what
Church speaks the truth because when you sugar coat things he makes people think some of the things they do aren't so bad Trust god be patient he has a plan don't get caught up in materialistic things trust god read the bible stay connected and live by ur faith and you won't regret it when u die I promise
One of my favorite songs. It hard to listen to because it was played at my best friends funeral. It'll be 4 years ago next Friday (march 25th). We were in 9th grade when he died. Miss HIM so much, it hurts so much!
GOD IS REAL AND I WAS RIDING THAT TRAIN TILL GOD SAVED MY SOUL AND THANK GOD IM FREE AND AM NO LONGER IN SIN AND THE DEVIL CANT DO ANYTHING TO HURT ME BECAUSE I BELONG TO GOD IM A CHILD OF THE KING AND EVERY THING THAT I HAVE EVER DONE IS UNDER THE BLOOD I LOVE YOU JESUS
This was my grandparents funeral song my grandma pass in 2009 and my papa died in 2012 and I miss both of them dearly I could have used them today. God Bless all of you🙏
took me a long time to fully understand this song. This was one of my fathers favorite songs. I know now why he made me listen to this. he went on that long black train.
I'm country, raised Christian, baptized, saved, all that. I've grown up and become a bhuddist, yet I listen to this song as it reminds me of my great grandfather who was a preacher and only passed on once *I* told him it was OK. Even if life has shaken my previous faith and led me to new beliefs this song still holds great power and love in my heart
Cmon guys! The lyrics r good, the songs good, it serves a good purpose! Cuz there's victory in the Lord I say victory in the Lord, Cling to the Father and His Holy Name and don't go ridin on that long black train!
That's kind of music I listen to all the time I'm kinda bored and getting back to my roots and Gary is that yo don't like my music just send me all you like it I don't please nobody on please and I please my father I please him I don't please nobody
I always enjoy hearing this song & singing along to it. The Coronavirus situation caused the churches in my hometown to shutdown during the summer of this year and during my free time I would play this song over & over again before going to bed. Recently, I got back into the joy of being back at church. I sure do wish that churches all over the world would play this song. Great song with a great spiritual message to it. In times of strife, we all need to, as the lyrics say, cling to the Father and his Holy name. So far, the Coronavirus hasn't got me. Never got infected with it. Praise be to God for keeping me safe from it.
I think this may be mine and my uncles favorite song. He died a few years back. and when I was really little me and my grandpa would sing it when we went to church. I just love this song so much!
Love this song! There was a time that I was buying drugs illegally, and doing them as well. Partying, and didn't care. And then on January, 7th, 2011 I was involved in a drug raid while at my now ex-best friend, her brother, and her now ex-boyfriend's house when the NRH TX Police and S.W.A.T. Team busted in. I was arrested and charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance, and my bound was set at 2,500. I made bail the next day, when it came time to appear in Court I was put on a year Probabtion, had to take random drug testing, pay 350 bucks in Court fees, $60 a month, and take a dope class and drug couseling. I started my Proba March, 31st, 2011, and got off March, 31st, 2012. Thank God the Judge dropped my charge from a Felony to a Misdemeanor. But I leaned my lesson. Left that kinda life behind, FOR GOOD! And haven't looked back since! God is good ALL THE TIME! And ALL THE TIME? God is good! Praise Jesus!!! 🛐✡⛪🕍✝🙏📿🙇☝👑.
Give your problems to God and you will be delivered. I asked God to help me quit smoking weed. I was arrested. Granted, that wasnt the solution I wanted. But I'm sober and clear headed now and it's thanks to God I got my feet on solid ground again!
@@ethanbrown2900 Same. Never touched one drug, drop of alch, crumb of ganja, nothing. In all my 26byears of life, clean as a whistle. So I cant relate either.
my grandpa always plays this song on his guitar and it's my favorite song to hear, because I know the meaning of this I've been on that train for a long time but my grandpa never gave up on me and now I can say that I am no longer on that train.
Thinking about you today Grandma Melvin. This was the song you always listened to this was the singer you always listened. I can't believe its going to be another Christmas without you. I love and miss you.
This song does not have a good message, because it is about a false teaching, which claims some people will burn in a place called hell, and that they will be in hell with no end.
Well Marabeth if this song and God's Word is true then be prepared because there is a hell and It was created for Satan and his angels and those who refuse the Truth of God Almighty and that Truth is His Son Jesus The Christ. If I God's Word is truth then you'd be very foolish not to believe in hell. If I am wrong then nothing lost, but if I am right in my belief then you are on your way to everlasting misery without light or help. Believe on The LORD JESUS and you will be saved. Read the Bible start in the book of John. He was one of Jesus's 12 disciples when He here on this planet.
Josh Turner is a Christian, He (In my eyes) is talking about the conductor of the train being the devil and the train itself is hell. He is saying look to God and he will save you. Sin looks so good but don't fall for it. It is really terrible.
I agree with you that the driver is the devil, but believe that the train is the thrilling ride that you go on when you choose your own way a sin. The "destination in the middle of nowhere" is the unwanted destination of he//.
YES!! tell them DONT GO RIDING ON THAT LONG BLACK TRAIN!!!!! it's not worth the pain!!! there's victory in the Lord! claim to the father and his holy name!!!
+La Force Productions doesn't mean that he killed him, he just beat him, Jesus has now saved us to where we can now get to heaven through him and we are now closer to God
satan read the Bible also, and he knows he has lost, but the earth was his domain.. Sin in pretty and enticing until it gets you hooked...when the Lord returns Satan will be sent to Hell with the sinners forever...read the Bible.
Satan, along with the existence of sin will be forever eradicated, destroyed and sin will perish. Not burning in hell for eternity. Www.amazingfacts.org
My grandmother passed away Thursday and this was her one of her favorite songs. I love you so much and I will always miss you. My heart is broken. But I know that you’re in a better place and you’re with your family and your twin sister. One day I will see you again.
I sang this at a karaoke after-party at a friend of mines wedding, all to impress a guy whod been a groomsman with me. Weve been together for 10 happy months and i hope for many more.
Lean to God and He will help you, He loves you more then you know, He loves all his children...whatever you may be dealing with He has u in his arms, plz if drugs plz seek help I know 3 ppl who just passed from it in past 3 yrs, it's a deadly epidemic
You better make sure your right with God before Jesus comes back. I pray for everyone. Lost or saved. Pray for the lost to come to accept Jesus as their personnel Lord and savior and pray for the saved. That we can come together as 1 accord and worship our mighty God and bring the lost to him.
I remember sitting in Church as a child listening to this thinking it sounded really good. Now as an adult struggling with alchohol this song means so so much more to me. I'm writing this with tears in my eyes and a guitar in my lap. Thank you God for helping me get this far. Please pray for me. I need all the help I can get.
Believe without doubting and it will be done for you
Prayers
I'm praying for you man hope you can find the right path keep praying and you will find the right path

This was my 102 year old Grampa's favorite song! He passed away in October 2015 and we (his family) played it at his funeral. He was a very humble & traditional Native American man...he knew he was going to heaven.
My 74 year old grandfather's favourite song and my favourite song
Awwwww he sounds like a rlly sweet man
That’s beautiful
May he rest in peace 🙏
I also played the song at my dad's funeral this passed August 2022 he also likes this song he was 87 & my best friend I miss him so much
it may sound stupid, but this song brings tears to my eyes. I served my country, and I spent a long time what I call " in the devils pocket ". and the Lord delivered me. . He can deliver you from whatever it is my friends. give it over to god.
Amen.
Bruce Wayne, Amen, Brother!
Bruce Wayne this song mAkes me cry
Faith helped me on my path from darkness drugs I’m afraid took ahold of my life faith and music really helped me and now I’m 6 years clean
Thats not stupid, AMEN!
i was the passenger...
but god saved me from the route to hell..
by going to the priest to receive baptism to clean my soul
now
i'm on the stairway to heaven,
if i mess up i go to confession
now im blessed
and
god will be with me through rough times
Remember baptism is a work, no amount of works will ever get us there. Through faith alone!

I should get down and pray a long and sincere prayer!!!
It's never too late, and it's never to early to start. I know this was 4 months ago, but you can make the right decision now.

Stop playing games with Jesus Christ, today is the day of salvation… believe in Christ and repent !!
Your worship songs draws and brings me close to the throne of grace of God. Thank you for being an inspiration
See you in heaven ! 🎉
Best country song I have heard yet. Glad to see people support Christianity.
I grew up in a very Christian area and family, and though today I am not religious in any way, songs like these are comforting and I can still appreciate the music.

Seek after HIM and you will be found of HIM- don’t be found on the long black train .

My mom loved Josh Turner and so do I
Same my granny funeral was June 21st and this was played. But we cried so much right when we heard it cause the memories came back.
I am listening to this just moments after my dad passes away. Josh Turner was his favorite artist. Love you daddy.

This voice can make even the most faithful woman weak in the knees
Josh Turner has such a golden voice.. and this song is one of his best, love it!
This is real country music. We need to get back to this. God, Family, Country!

I was a passenger on that train as well. Every time sing the words of this song I get a little further to living right.
Romans 3:23 For al have sinned and fallen short if the glory of God.
Been on that damn train and it's hard but it's a great song
I'm no longer a Christian, haven't been for a long time but this is still a beautiful song. Josh Turner has such a lovely voice.
In my experience this song really helps me with what I've been thru it helped me when I was getting off drugs and praise the good lord I've been clean for 6 years now
I want to dedicate this song to my 99 year old Pappaw . He served our country in the Navy and spent his life working in a steel mill to support our family . thank you Pappaw for always reminding me that I can find love and forgiveness in Christ.
This song was played at my grandpa funeral. Miss him more and more everyday. Never thought I wouldnt get to tell him goodbye or i love you one last time. This world dosent seem the same without him. I wish he didnt have to go,But god calls the good ones. Fly high grandpa. Forever in my heart and never forgotten. I love you and hope you know that 💔😭

I Can't
I won't

I have no strength
I have no anything without him
Christ I need to have strength

Love his voice, and this song is just amazing.
Played this album while driving through the Green Mountains of Vermont.
What an experience.
Church speaks the truth because when you sugar coat things he makes people think some of the things they do aren't so bad Trust god be patient he has a plan don't get caught up in materialistic things trust god read the bible stay connected and live by ur faith and you won't regret it when u die I promise
One of my favorite songs. It hard to listen to because it was played at my best friends funeral. It'll be 4 years ago next Friday (march 25th). We were in 9th grade when he died. Miss HIM so much, it hurts so much!
GOD IS REAL AND I WAS RIDING THAT TRAIN TILL GOD SAVED MY SOUL AND THANK GOD IM FREE AND AM NO LONGER IN SIN AND THE DEVIL CANT DO ANYTHING TO HURT ME BECAUSE I BELONG TO GOD IM A CHILD OF THE KING AND EVERY THING THAT I HAVE EVER DONE IS UNDER THE BLOOD I LOVE YOU JESUS

I remember we sang this at my uncles funeral. This was his favorite song.😭😔 I miss you Bruce! RIP I love you❤️😔😭
I can't stop listening to this great song!
took me a long time to fully understand this song. This was one of my fathers favorite songs. I know now why he made me listen to this. he went on that long black train.
I'm country, raised Christian, baptized, saved, all that. I've grown up and become a bhuddist, yet I listen to this song as it reminds me of my great grandfather who was a preacher and only passed on once *I* told him it was OK. Even if life has shaken my previous faith and led me to new beliefs this song still holds great power and love in my heart
You believe in love so you believe in me and you are mine. Blessings to you my son.
I love this song. It was one of my favorites as a child.

Yes sir, this is country music back when it was still country.
stupendus guapo it's still a new song to me lol
I suggest you check out all of Josh turners music. Great musician.
That's kind of music I listen to all the time I'm kinda bored and getting back to my roots and Gary is that yo don't like my music just send me all you like it I don't please nobody on please and I please my father I please him I don't please nobody
stupendus guapo thanks for the tip I'm country men Gary
Don't call me sir I work for a living call me Gary please you know I'm old country thank you hey you your female male
I always enjoy hearing this song & singing along to it. The Coronavirus situation caused the churches in my hometown to shutdown during the summer of this year and during my free time I would play this song over & over again before going to bed. Recently, I got back into the joy of being back at church. I sure do wish that churches all over the world would play this song. Great song with a great spiritual message to it. In times of strife, we all need to, as the lyrics say, cling to the Father and his Holy name. So far, the Coronavirus hasn't got me. Never got infected with it. Praise be to God for keeping me safe from it.
why can't country today be like this
I feel you bud
+Awesomeis Cool7 yes they did
+Jake Burchfield ikr
i feel the same way
look up chris stapleton or turn pike troubadours or josh abbott band. it's new music but not pop country shit.
You always used to sing this to me, I miss you dad.
I think this may be mine and my uncles favorite song. He died a few years back. and when I was really little me and my grandpa would sing it when we went to church. I just love this song so much!
This was always my favorite song when I was little... still absolutely love it. Also anyone else watching in 2021?
No but I’m watching it in 2022🤭😆😅
No matter how life is, there is victory in our lord.
See ya in heaven 🎉
Me my mother went to a concert down in Montana for Josh Turner and when it came on we sang LOUD. agree that this is the best song
Wow I guess people do love Josh and I wish I knew how to send him a fanletter
To me this is one of country music's greatest songs!
this song has so much potential love this song
Me and my dad used to listen to this song and now I’m listening to it without him. Love ya and miss ya dad.
i
Love this song it helped me in my walk with Christ
My childhood memories are back!!!!! I used to play this song all the time when I was little
Love this song! There was a time that I was buying drugs illegally, and doing them as well. Partying, and didn't care. And then on January, 7th, 2011 I was involved in a drug raid while at my now ex-best friend, her brother, and her now ex-boyfriend's house when the NRH TX Police and S.W.A.T. Team busted in. I was arrested and charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance, and my bound was set at 2,500. I made bail the next day, when it came time to appear in Court I was put on a year Probabtion, had to take random drug testing, pay 350 bucks in Court fees, $60 a month, and take a dope class and drug couseling. I started my Proba March, 31st, 2011, and got off March, 31st, 2012. Thank God the Judge dropped my charge from a Felony to a Misdemeanor. But I leaned my lesson. Left that kinda life behind, FOR GOOD! And haven't looked back since! God is good ALL THE TIME! And ALL THE TIME? God is good! Praise Jesus!!! 🛐✡⛪🕍✝🙏📿🙇☝👑.
Give your problems to God and you will be delivered. I asked God to help me quit smoking weed. I was arrested. Granted, that wasnt the solution I wanted. But I'm sober and clear headed now and it's thanks to God I got my feet on solid ground again!
Good for you, never having gone through that I can't say I relate. I do know several people who have gone through that.
are u still doing good
@@ethanbrown2900 Same.
Never touched one drug, drop of alch, crumb of ganja, nothing. In all my 26byears of life, clean as a whistle. So I cant relate either.
2020 and this song is still so great!
Went to steam town with my husband today and sang the song all day. Don’t seem to get too many memories like that anymore!
I cry every time I hear this song. This was played at my grandpas funeral and he used to listen to it all the time with my cousin❤️ Rip papaw
my grandpa always plays this song on his guitar and it's my favorite song to hear, because I know the meaning of this I've been on that train for a long time but my grandpa never gave up on me and now I can say that I am no longer on that train.
Thinking about you today Grandma Melvin. This was the song you always listened to this was the singer you always listened. I can't believe its going to be another Christmas without you. I love and miss you.
we need a lot more music like this
I'm not religious in the slightest but I really like this song. It has a good message.
This song does not have a good message, because it is about a false teaching, which claims some people will burn in a place called hell, and that they will be in hell with no end.
Well Marabeth if this song and God's Word is true then be prepared because there is a hell and It was created for Satan and his angels and those who refuse the Truth of God Almighty and that Truth is His Son Jesus The Christ. If I God's Word is truth then you'd be very foolish not to believe in hell. If I am wrong then nothing lost, but if I am right in my belief then you are on your way to everlasting misery without light or help. Believe on The LORD JESUS and you will be saved. Read the Bible start in the book of John. He was one of Jesus's 12 disciples when He here on this planet.
October 6th 2015, my papa, my dad's dad, died and this was played at his funeral...WE LOVE YOU, PAPA. YOU ARE SURELY MISSED...
Josh Turner is a Christian, He (In my eyes) is talking about the conductor of the train being the devil and the train itself is hell. He is saying look to God and he will save you. Sin looks so good but don't fall for it. It is really terrible.
I agree with you that the driver is the devil, but believe that the train is the thrilling ride that you go on when you choose your own way a sin. The "destination in the middle of nowhere" is the unwanted destination of he//.
Lawrence Clark i thought the train was sin and the pain that goes with it and the "middle of nowhere" is hell
YES!! tell them DONT GO RIDING ON THAT LONG BLACK TRAIN!!!!! it's not worth the pain!!! there's victory in the Lord! claim to the father and his holy name!!!
Noah Abel exactly
Amen
Praise the Lord!!! Amen!
This was my father's favorite song. This coming year will be 10 years. My father was killed on July 25, 2006 his birthday. I miss you Daddy, R.I.P
I love this I could listen to it over and over again need more music like this
Abby Elliott that is so true.
I love this song! I always have my entire life ❤
This song was my late friend's favorite. It was played at his funeral. I miss you Adam
I love this song and I will always love our God.
See you in heaven !! 🎉
I was listening to this in my truck when it was super hot out and I was sweating but this song still gave me chills
This was sung at my friend's funeral yesterday...he was so young. Miss you Ethan...RIP
amen to this song reminds you thru all the chaos in this
The lord has beaten the devil
If that were true why is he still around? You also know that the Devil(Lucifer) was one of God's Angels right?
+La Force Productions doesn't mean that he killed him, he just beat him, Jesus has now saved us to where we can now get to heaven through him and we are now closer to God
satan read the Bible also, and he knows he has lost, but the earth was his domain.. Sin in pretty and enticing until it gets you hooked...when the Lord returns Satan will be sent to Hell with the sinners forever...read the Bible.
And always will.
Satan, along with the existence of sin will be forever eradicated, destroyed and sin will perish. Not burning in hell for eternity. Www.amazingfacts.org
My grandmother passed away Thursday and this was her one of her favorite songs. I love you so much and I will always miss you. My heart is broken. But I know that you’re in a better place and you’re with your family and your twin sister. One day I will see you again.
“Victory in The Lord!”
LORD NEVER LOSES🥰😁
See ya in heaven
This song speaks peace to my soul against the cry of the world!
I remember riding in my dads truck listening to this song.😘💝😘💝It didnt come on the radio enough.
I sang this at a karaoke after-party at a friend of mines wedding, all to impress a guy whod been a groomsman with me. Weve been together for 10 happy months and i hope for many more.
Praise the Lord Jesus!
See you in heaven ! 🎉
thx for putting this on RUclips when my grandma passed away April 20 2015 we always will listen to it together
on that train and getting off slowly but surely.
Lean to God and He will help you, He loves you more then you know, He loves all his children...whatever you may be dealing with He has u in his arms, plz if drugs plz seek help I know 3 ppl who just passed from it in past 3 yrs, it's a deadly epidemic
Awesome!
You better make sure your right with God before Jesus comes back.
I pray for everyone. Lost or saved. Pray for the lost to come to accept Jesus as their personnel Lord and savior and pray for the saved. That we can come together as 1 accord and worship our mighty God and bring the lost to him.
Good luck to you brother
God be with you. "With God, all things possible " "Victory in the Lord"
