Life is (G)like a mountain railway (G7) with an (C)engineer that's (G)brave

And keep your hands upon the throttle and your (A7)eye (D) upon the (G)rail

(Chorus in tempo)
Blessed (C)Savior, Thou wilt (G)guide us till we reach that blissful (D)shore
Where the (G)an-(G7)-gels wait to (C)join us in God's (G)praise (D) forever-(G)more

As you (G)roll across the trestle spanning (C)Jordan's swelling (G)tide
You behold the Union Depot into (A7)which your train will (D)glide

With a hearty joyous greeting, weary pil-(A7)-grim, (D)welcome home (G) (F) (E)
