Steven Curtis Chapman - Life Is Like a Mountain Railroad (Life's Railway to Heaven) lyrics

Life is like a mountain railway With an engineer that's brave We must make this run successful From the cradle to the grave Watch the curves, the fills, and tunnels Never falter, never fail Keep your hand upon the throttle And your eyes upon the rail Blessed savior, thou will guide us Till we reach that blissful shore Where the angels wait to join us In that great forevermore 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 Blessed savior, thou will guide us Till we reach that blissful shore Where the angels wait to join us In that great 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 the hearty, joyous, plaudit, “Weary pilgrim, welcome home!” Blessed savior, thou will guide us Till we reach that blissful shore Where the angels wait to join us In that great forevermore Where the angels wait to join us In that great forevermore
