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. |
|
Blessed Savior, thou will guide us, |
|
Till we reach that blissful shore, |
|
Where the angels wait to join us, |
|
In God's praise for evermore. |
|
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. |
|
Blessed Savior, thou will guide us, |
|
Till we reach that blissful shore, |
|
Where the angels wait to join us, |
|
In God's praise forevermore. |
