Life's Railway to Heaven
Jimmy Dean · American Originals [Columbia] [1989]
(M.E. Abbey - Charlie D. Tillman)
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 fields, the tunnels
Do your duty, never fail
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eye upon the rail.
Blessed Saviour Thou must guide us
Till we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In Thy praise forevermore.
Blessed Saviour Thou must guide us
Till we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us
In Thy praise forevermore...
