Life's Railway to Heaven

Author: M. E. Abbey Hymnal: YL1982 #387 (1982) Person Name: M. E. Abbey First Line: Life is like a mountain railroad Refrain First Line: Blessed Savior, Thou wlt guide us Lyrics: 1 Life is like a mountain railroad, With an engineer that’s brave; We must make the run successful, From the cradle to the grave; Watch the curves, the fills, the tunnels, Never falter, never quail; Keep your hand upon the throttle, And your eye upon the rail. Refrain: Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us, Till we reach the blissful shore, Where the angels wait to join us In Thy praise forevermore. 2 You will roll up grades of trial; You will cross the bridge of strife; See that Christ is your conductor On this lightning train of life; Always mindful of obstruction, Do your duty, never fail; Keep your hand upon the throttle, And your eye upon the rail. [Refrain] 3 You will often find obstructions; Look for storms and wind and rain; On a fill, or curve, or trestle, They will almost ditch your train; Put your trust alone in Jesus; Never falter, never fail; Keep your hand upon the throttle, And your eye upon the rail. [Refrain] 4 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 Sup’rintendent, God the Father, God the Son, With the hearty, joyous plaudit, “Weary pilgrim, welcome home.” [Refrain] Topics: Choir Selections; Guidance Languages: English Tune Title: [Life is like a mountain railroad]
