Life's Railway to Heaven Lyrics

Song by The Oak Ridge Boys
 
Life is like a mountain railroadWith an engineer that's braveWe must make the run successfulFrom the cradle to the grave 
Watch the curves, the hills, the tunnelsNever falter, never failKeep your hand upon the trottleAnd your eye upon the rail
 
As you roll across the trestleSpanning Jordan's swelling tideYou'll behold the union depotInto which your train will glide 
There you'll meet the superintendentGod the father, God the sonWith extended arms he'll greet us"Weary pilgrim welcome home"
 
Blessed savior thou will guide us'Til we reach that blissful shoreWhere the angels wait to join usIn His praise forevermoreIn His praise forevermore (forevermore)

"There Is a Fountain" Featuring David Phelps & Gaither Vocal Band Homecoming Gathering

 Who can wash us clean from all our filthiness? Surely there is a fountain than can do that and that is the precious blood of Jesus Christ our Lord. This song powerfully paints a picture and illustration. David Phelps is truly a wonderful gospel hymn singer and he did a great performance of "There is A Fountain" in one of the Gaither Homecoming Gatherings. Be blessed! The Gaither Vocal Band was founded in the early ’80s by renowned Christian music leader Bill Gaither. GVB became one of America’s leading southern gospel vocal groups. While Bill Gaither remained the only original member of the ensemble, many well-regarded CCM/gospel singers have passed through the band’s ranks, including Russ Taff, Guy Penrod, Wes Hampton, Michael English, Mark Lowry, and David Phelps. Today, the Gaither Vocal Band roster is comprised of five power-packed voices, including Bill Gaither, Wes Hampton, Adam Crabb, Todd Suttles and Reggie Smith.
