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 the tunnels....
Never falter...never quail...
Keep your hand upon the throttle...
And your eyes upon the rail....
[cho:] BLESSED SAVIOR...THOU WILT GUIDE US...
TILLE WE REACH....THAT BLISSFUL SHORE.....
WHERE THE ANGELS WAIT TO JOIN US.....
IN THY PRAISE....FOR EVER MORE....
[Musical Channel] Dobro - Mandolin
Verse Number Two:
You will often find obstructions...
Look for storms of wind and rain....
On a fill...or curve or trestle...
They will almost ditch your train.....
Put your trust alone in Jesus...
Never falter....never fail....
Keep your hand upon the throttle....
And you eye...upon the rail....
[cho:] BLESSED SAVIOR...THOU WILT GUIDE US...
TILLE WE REACH....THAT BLISSFUL SHORE.....
WHERE THE ANGELS WAIT TO JOIN US.....
IN THY PRAISE....FOR EVER MORE....
[Solo] Mandolin
Verse Number Three
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 a hearty...joyous...plaudit...
Weary pilgrim....welcome home.......
[cho:] BLESSED SAVIOR...THOU WILT GUIDE US...
TILLE WE REACH....THAT BLISSFUL SHORE.....
WHERE THE ANGELS WAIT TO JOIN US.....
IN THY PRAISE....FOR EVER MORE....
Final Chorus
[cho:] BLESSED SAVIOR...THOU WILT GUIDE US...
TILLE WE REACH....THAT BLISSFUL SHORE.....
WHERE THE ANGELS WAIT TO JOIN US.....
IN THY PRAISE....FOR EVER MORE....
Tag
In thy praise...in thy praise...forever more
