Life's Railway To Heaven
by Russ Taff

Album: Under Their Influence, Vol. 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 hands upon the throttle
And your eyes, upon the rail

You will roll up grades of trial
You will cross the bridge of strife
See that Christ is your conductor
On this light'ning train of life
Always mindful of obstructions

Chorus:
Blessed Saviour, Thou will guide us
Till we reach the other shore
Where the angels wait to join us
in thy great forevermore

As you roll across the trestle
Spanning Jordan's chilly tide
You'll behold the Union Depot
Into which your train will glide
There you'll meet the superintendents
God the Father, God the Son
With the hearty, joyous plaudit
“Weary pilgrim, welcome home”

Chorus twice
