verse 2
You will rull up grades of trial
You will cross the ridge of strife,
See that Christ is your connection
On the lightning train of life
Allways mindful of obstruction,
Do your duty, never fail,
Keep your hand upon the throttle,
And your eyes upon the rail.

chorus

verse 3
You will often find obstructions,
Look for storm of 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 eyes upon the rail.

chorus

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 find the superintendent,
God the Father, God the Son,
With a hearty joyous plaudit,
Weary pilgrim, welcome home!
