Life's Railway to Heaven |
Merle Haggard |

|
Life is like** a mountain railway, |
With an engineer that's brave. |
We must make** the right connections, |
From the cradle** to the grave. |
Watch the curves, **the fill, **the tunnels, |
Never falter,** never quail. |
Keep your hand** upon the throttle, |
And your eyes** upon the rail. |
|
Blessed Saviour,**Thou wilt guide us, |
Till we reach,**that blissful shore, |
Where the angels,**wait to join us, |
In The** praise for ever more |
|
As you roll** across the trestle, |
Spanning Jordan's **swelling tide, |
You behold** the Union Depot, |
Into which **your train will drive. |
There you'll meet** the Superintendent, |
God the Father,** God the Son, |
With the hearty,** joyus plaudit, |
"Weary pilgrims,** welcome home." |
|
Blessed Saviour,**Thou wilt guide us, |
Till we reach,**that blissful shore, |
Where the angels,**wait to join us, |
In The** praise for ever more |
Solo |
|
Blessed Saviour,**Thou wilt guide us, |
Till we reach,**that blissful shore, |
Where the angels,**wait to join us, |
In The** praise for ever more |
|
In The** praise **for **ever **more |
