Life's Railway to Heaven

Abbey First Line: Life is like a mountain railroad Refrain First Line: Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us Lyrics: 1 Life is like a mountain railroad, 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 eye upon the rail. Refrain: Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us, Till we reach that blissful shore, Where the angels wait to join us In Thy praise forevermore. 2 You will roll up grades of trial; You will cross the bridge of strife; 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. [Refrain] 3 You will often find obstructions; Look for storms and 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 your eye upon the rail. [Refrain] 4 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 Sup’rintendent, God the Father, God the Son, With the hearty, joyous plaudit, “Weary pilgrim, welcome home.” [Refrain] Topics: Comfort; Faith; Fellowship with God; Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: [Life is like a mountain railroad]

Bartlett First Line: When on the cross of Calv'ry Refrain First Line: Will the Lord remember me Lyrics: 1 When on the cross of Calv’ry The Lord was crucified; The mob stood ’round about Him And mocked until He died. Two thieves were nailed beside Him To share the agony. But one of them cried out to Him, "O Lord, remember me.” Refrain: Will the Lord remember me, When I am called to go? When I have crossed death’s chilly sea, Will He His love there show? O, yes, He heard my feeble cries, From bondage set me free. And when I reach the pearly gates, He will remember me. 2 O, what a shame to kill Him There on that rugged cross; But such a death was needed To rescue all the lost. His blood was made a ransom To set the captives free, I know that I’m included, and He will remember me. [Refrain] 3 At His dear feet I’m kneeling, My sins I now confess; I bow in deep repentance, My soul He’ll surely bless. My blinded eyes He opens So that the light I see, And when I reach the pearly gates, He will remember me.
