"Life's Railway To Heaven" lyrics
Life is like a mountain railroad
With an engineer that's brave
We must make the run successsful
From the cradle to the grave
Watch for curves that fills the tunnels
Never falter nevery fail
Keep your hands upon the throttle
And your eye upon the rail
Blessed Saviour, Thou willt guide us
Til we reach the blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In thy praise evermore
As you roll across the trestle
Spanning Jordan's swelling tide
You behold the Union Depot
Into which your train will glide
There you'll meet the Superintendent
God, the Father, God, the Son
With a heart joyous party
Weary pilgrim, welcome home
Blessed Savior, Thy will guide us
Til we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In thy praise forevermore
With an engineer that's brave
We must make the run successsful
From the cradle to the grave
Watch for curves that fills the tunnels
Never falter nevery fail
Keep your hands upon the throttle
And your eye upon the rail
Blessed Saviour, Thou willt guide us
Til we reach the blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In thy praise evermore
As you roll across the trestle
Spanning Jordan's swelling tide
You behold the Union Depot
Into which your train will glide
There you'll meet the Superintendent
God, the Father, God, the Son
With a heart joyous party
Weary pilgrim, welcome home
Blessed Savior, Thy will guide us
Til we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In thy praise forevermore
