Life's Railway to Heaven
Jessica Horton
Life is like a mountain railway With an engineer that's brave We must make the run successful From the cradle to the grave Watch for curves and hills and valleys Never falter never fail keep your hands upon the throttle And your eye upon the rail Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us Till we reach that blissful shore Where the angels wait to join us In Thy praise forevermore 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 hearty joyous greeting Weary pilgrim, welcome home Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us Till we reach that blissful shore Where the angels wait to join us In Thy praise forevermore Oh, in Thy praise forevermore
