Tom T. Hall - God Came Through Bellville, Georgia lyrics

I'll tell you all the story
That I think you'll understand
Travelin' through Georgia ramblin'
Cross the land
I passed the Belleville depot and
Something said to me
Stop here son there's something
You should see i stopped awhile and rested
On the depot steps
The tall pines waved and in the breeze
The air was clear and fresh
That Georgia winter sunshine was a
Warming up my back
And I saw a train coming down the track
God came through Belleville, Georgia
He was ridin' on the noonday train
All power to him and praise his holy name
He never got off of the train he
Never got off of the train
I've never had a day like that
Since I have been alive


My body full of feeling there
Was vision in my eyes
I've traveled this world over just
To meet that certain train
And I know my life will never be the same
Well, I don't know where he's going but
I know he likes to ride
Across the hills and valleys through
The prairies through the skies
And I know the time is coming
If the world don't ever change
Everybody's gotta meet that train
God came through Belleville
He never does he never got off of the
Train he never got off of that train
