Life's Railway to Heaven

Life is like a mountain railway

With an Engineer that's brave.

We must make the run successful

From the cradle to the grave.

Heed the curves the hills the tunnels,

Never falter, never fail.

Keep your hand upon the throttle

And your eye upon the rail.

(CHORUS:) 

Blessed Savior,

Thou wilt guide us

‘Till we reach that blissful shore.

Where the angels wait to join us

In God's praise forever more.

As we roll along the mainline,

There'll be storms and there'll be night.

There'll be sidetracks unexpected

On the left and on the right.

But with the straight always before us

And our hearts upon the prize

There'll be no disembarkation

Until we reach paradise.

(CHORUS)
