Verse

        E                               A               E
Life is like a mountain railway with an engineer that's brave
        E                                 F#7           B7
We must make this run successful from the cradle to the grave
          E                                    A            E
Watch the curves, the fills, the tunnels never falter never fail
                                              B7       E
Keep your hand upon the throttle and your eye upon the rail

Chorus

        A               E                                    B7
Blessed savior there to guide us till we reach that blissful shore
          E               A               E      B7      E
Where the angels wait to join us in God's praise forever more

Verse

You will roll up grades of trial,  you will cross the bridge of life
See that Christ is your conductor on this lightning train of life
Always mindful of obstruction,   do your duty never fail
Keep your hand upon the throttle and your eye upon the rail

Verse

As you roll across the trestle spanning Jordan's swelling tide
You will reach the Union Depot into which the train will ride
There you'll meet the Superintendent, God the Father, God the Son
With a hearty, joyous greeting weary pilgrims welcome home.
