LYRICS:
Life is like a mountain railway,
With an engineer that’s brave;
We must make the run successful,
From the cradle to the grave;
Watch the curves, the fills, the tunnels;
Never falter, never fail;
Keep your hands upon the throttle,
And your eyes upon the rail.
Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us,
Till we reach that blissful shore,
Where the angels wait to join us
In Thy praise forevermore.
You will roll up grades of trial;
You will cross the bridge of strife;
See that Christ is your conductor
On this lightning train of life;
Always mindful of obstruction,
Do your duty, never fail;
Keep your hands upon the throttle,
And your eyes upon the rail.
You will often find obstructions,
Look for storms and 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 hands upon the throttle,
And your eyes upon the rail.
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 meet the Sup’rintendent,
God the Father, God the Son,
With the hearty, joyous plaudit,
“Weary Pilgrim, welcome home.” - Hudba
I can see how the Statler Brothers picked him simply put they said he is the one ,the best and still is thank you Jimmy for a great
HAPPY. BIRTHDAY
Listen to a gospel song every morning!!! I'm sure it will make your days better! I wish I could hit the like button every time I watch this!!!
Lil Jimmy brings a big heart and a whole lot of soul to his show's. Pure Country Gospel at it's finest.
You've brought new life to the table Jimmy. Beautifully balanced playing and a pleasure to watch and listen to. Great band, some lovely tracks. Sligo, Ireland.
I don't jimmy fortune is appreciated he has a beautiful and can sing high and low love him
I spent the last 45 years traveling and playing and singing and the last 20 of it doing Gospel Music, the joy of my life. I've been busy until I semi retired a while back and now do my live stream Gospel Music sing along on my youtube channel. So, I'm a little late to the party so to speak as far as keeping up with other singers etc., but you my friend are something! I keep running into your songs on youtube and haven't found a slack one yet. Love your whole band, but don't ever let that fiddle player go. She is special. Her touch on that fiddle and her harmony, second to none!
Jimmy Fortune....I really enjoy listening to your voice. You have been given a wonderful gift from Our Father. Keep singing....!! Sharon
This is my dad's favorite song, mainly because he has worked in the railroad industry for 26 years and still going. It is also very relatable to him. He loves this song so much, he made a request for this song to be sung at his funeral when he dies.
I don't think that Jimmy Fortune has been properly appreciated. A truly great singer, exceptional. And whoa! Did you hear that that guitar solo he just played??
FOR REAL! I Had no idea he could pick like that!!
THAT was awesome.
Jimmy is amazing, love his voice
Never heard more beautiful music . THANK YOU JIMMY ❤
I love Jimmy fortune, but his solo is fake. Musta had some other guy in the background playing while he was trying to imitate it.
I grew up hearing the Statlers sing this (on Lew's last album with them). Nice to hear Jimmy sing it also. :)
love you jimmy, the songs are really great, love listening to all your singing.
I like his angelic voice. U can listen to him all day everyday. I love the man.
I have always loved your singing voice it has such a meaning in it...God has blessed you!!! Thanks for sharing his love with us through your music!!!
Just....Wow!. What a voice...what a band. Stupendous.
Great singer and fantastic backup band.
Glory to God Amen
Oh how you blessed me with this . My grandpa Big John Hughes sang this to me and taught me about the majesty and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
my mom just got this cd this year today up at church for her birthday and it's already lo0veable,., satan cant get to you when you got this playing i know. p-raise the good ole lord above, jesus the same yesterday, tomorrow and forever.

Awesome song thanks.G OD bless you.
Life is like a mountain railway, with an engineer that's brave
We must make the run successful, from the cradle to the grave,
Heed the curves and hills and tunnels, never falter never fail,
Keep your hand upon the throttle, and your eye upon the rail.
Blessed Savior, thou will guide us,
Till we reach that blissful shore,
Where the angels wait to join us,
In God's praise for evermore.
As we roll along the mainline, they'll be storms and they'll be night,
They'll be sidetracks unexpected, on the left and on the right,
But with the straight always before us, and our hearts upon the prize,
They'll be no disembarkation until we reach paradise.
Blessed Savior, thou will guide us,
Till we reach that blissful shore,
Where the angels wait to join us,
In God's praise for evermore.

Best gospel song ever written. Love the version with Johnny Cash, Earl Scruggs, and others on the Will the Circle be Unbroken album Vol. 2. Still have it on vinyl. Fantastic record. Who is the girl playing the fiddle? She is quite good.
Love Jimmy Fortune.
quiet texing us please you are bothering us thank you don't text us any more
I think you have a problem. I don't know you and I sure haven't ever texted you.
Love your music .What is the ladies name playing the fiddle and back up singer?
Sydni Perry
Wow that fiddler is top class mighty fine mighty fine.
Who is the violin player? Thanks.
I think those are the Isaacs on backup. That would be Sonja. I could be wrong. That is for sure her brother on bass.
The great American Labor song, "Union Miner Stand Together" employs the same melody.
Goodness… that ol gal on the fiddle 😮
Money don't mean nothin if you don't have daddy life to keep you alive to get it. Don't forget about daddy life stick by his side.
Who is that very talented woman playing the fiddle on this session?
Sydni Perry
@@rmltperry6163 Thanks
The Pianist looks a lot like the late Steve Sanders
Not bad
The eagles Rock hood
bishop paul
Shirley Linson Jimmy , You are no doubt one of the best. I love your music so much and you too.God has his his hands on you.
Who's on the fiddle
,
What is Jimmy giving the satanic hand sign at the end of the video about?
That sign he makes is ASL (American Sign Language) for "I love you."
It's the shorthand way of saying "I love you" in sign language. The long-handed way of saying it is pointing to yourself with the thumb, then placing both palms over the heart, then pointing to your audience.
Love all these videos,but am so disappointed as I thought they were fairly live...Just heard a lead guitar break and the guitar player is playing 5 string banjo....studio job with fixes :(
All of the vocals on the DVD are 100% live and were recorded in one take with no autotuning.
+Richard Perry oh I had no doubt about the vocal. It's just breathtaking.
100% live as far as this musician can tell.
douglas carson Watch Jimmy's lead break. It doesn't match... I don't really care though. The man is a genius and I think he is amazing.
That is Not the young lady playing the fiddle break
The singing is fantastic but that guitar solo; had no idea Jimmy was such a picker.
