Life's Railway To Heaven
M.E. Abbey

G                                       C               G
Life is like a mountain railway with an Engineer that's brave
                                         A             D
We must make the run successful from the cradle to the grave
G                                               C             G
Heed the curves, the hills, the tunnels, never falter, never fail
                                              D        G
Keep your hand upon the throttle and your eye upon the rail
 
        C                 G
Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us
                            D
Till we reach that blissful shore
G                        C                G      D       G
Where the angels wait to join us in God's praise forever more
 
        G                               C                 G
As you roll across the trestle spanning Jordan's swelling tide
                                     A                     D
You will behold the Union Depot into which your train will ride
             G                                C               G
There you'll meet the Superintendent, God the Father, God the Son
                                             D       G
With a hearty, joyous greeting weary pilgrims welcome home

        C                 G
Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us
                            D
Till we reach that blissful shore
G                        C                G      D       G
Where the angels wait to join us in God's praise forever more
G                        C                G      D       G
Where the angels wait to join us in God's praise forever more
