Johnny Cash, a hopeful universalist?

I remember when the Johnny Cash show was televised from Nashvile's "Grand Old Opre," and I always liked Cash.

I was somewhat surprised to find he recorded a song that speaks of Judas and John Wilkes Booth reaching heaven.

Some of the lyrics are:

There's a river by the trestle down by sinner's grove
Down where the willow and the dogwood grow

You can hear the whistle, you can hear the bell
From the halls of heaven to the gates of hell

I saw Judas Iscariot carrying John Wilkes Booth
He was down there by the train
Down there by the train...
If you've lost all your hope, if you've lost all your faith
I know you can be cared for and I know you can be safe
And all the shamefuls and all of the whores
And even the soldier who pierced the side of the Lord Is down there by the train
Down there by the train
Down there by the train ...
