Life is like a mountain railroad, with an engineer that’s 
D  E
brave. We must make the run successful, from the cradle

G  D
never falter, never fail. Keep the hand upon the throttle, 
A  D
and your eye upon the rail.

Blessed saviour, Thou will guide us, til we reach

that blissful shore, where the angels wait to join us, 
D  A  D
in Thy praise for ever more.

You will roll up grades of trial, you will cross

of obstruction, do your duty, never fail.

You will often find obstructions, look for storms

they will almost ditch your train. Put your trust

alone in Jesus, never falter, never fail.

Keep the hand upon the throttle, and your eye upon the rail.

As you roll across the trestle, spanning Jordan’s swelling 
D  E
tide, you behold the union depot into which your train 
A  D
will glide; There you’ll meet the superintendent, 
G  D
God the Father, God the son, with the hearty 
A  D
joyous plaudit, weary pilgrim, welcome home.
