Life’s Railway To Heaven
Life’s Railway to Heaven
2615
Life is like a mountain raliroad-
With an engineer that’s bra
We must make the run successful
From the cradle in
Watch the curves, the file the tunnales
Never faiter, never Qual
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eys on the rail
Chorus-
Blessed Revior, thou will wuide us
Till we reach that blissful shore,
Where the angels wait to join us
In thy praise forever more
You will roll un grades of trial;
You will crows the briden of strife:
See that Christ in your conductor
On this lightning train of life
Always mindful of obstructions
Do your duty, never fall:
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eye upon the rail
You will often find obstructions:
Look for storms of wind and rain
On a fill, a curve, or trestle:
They will almost ditch your train
Put your trust alone in Jesus:
Never falter, never fati
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eye upon the rail
As you roll across the trentie
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 Bon
With a hearty, Joyous plaudit:
“Weary pilevim, welcome home!”
