(Traditonal, arranged by Elliot Mazer & Linda Ronstadt)
|
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 and watch the tunnels
|
Never falter, never fail
|
Keep your hands upon the throttle
|
And your eye upon the rail
|
|
Blessed Saviour there to guide us
|
Till we reach that blissful shore
|
And the angels there to join us
|
In God's grace forevermore
|
|
As you roll across the trestle
|
Spanning Jordan's swelling tide
|
You will reach the Union Depot
|
Into which your train will ride
|
|
There you'll meet the superintendent
|
God the father, God the son
|
With a happy joyous greeting
|
Weary pilgrim, welcome home
|
|
Blessed Saviour there to guide us
|
Till we reach that blissful shore
|
And the angels there to join us
|
In God's grace forevermore
|
|
In God's grace forevermore
|
