Went to the river to be baptised When I got there to my surprise My neighbours were gone and the preacher too I cried 'oh lord' what shall I do Then a voice cried out so loud and plain I heard some one call my name Singing your Right On Time Your Right On Time It was John saying your Right On Time Up on a mountain one cloudy day I closed my eyes and I began to pray When I opend my eyes you know the sun broke through My heart was happy and my soul was new I started walking and before too long I heard his voice sing this song Singing your Right On Time Your Right On Time It was John saying your Right On Time Went to the station endin for that rain Made up my mind to ride that gospel train When I got there the train was picking up speed I cried oh lord and fell on my knees When the brakeman heard he slowed that train right down When I jumped on board he said your glory bound Singing your Right On Time Your Right On Time It was John saying your Right On Time Oh when I feel like every hope has died I remember that voice by the water side Singing your Right On Time Your Right On Time It was John saying your Right On Time
