The Railroad To Heaven
THE road to heaven by Christ was made,
With heavenly truth the rails were laid,
From earth to heaven the line extends,
To life eternal, where it ends.
Repentance is the station, then,
Where passengers are taken in,
No fare for them is there to pay,
For Jesus is Himself the way.
The Bible is the engineer,
It points the way to heaven so clear;
Through tunnels dark and dreary here,
It does the way to glory steer.
God's love the fire, his truth the steam,
Which drives the engine and the train;
All you who would to glory ride,
Must come to Christ, in him abide.
Come then, dear children, now's the time!
At any station on the line,
If you repent and turn from sin,
The train will stop and take you in.
