Lyrics
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 the curves, the fills and tresholds
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 thy praise forevermore
As you roll across the tresholds
Spanning Jordan swelling tide
You'll behold the union deep hole
Into which your train will glide
Now there you'll meet the superintendent
God the father and the son
With a hawdy welcome stranger
Weary pilgrim welcome home
Blessed Savior, Thou will guide us
Till we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In thy grace forevermore
