Life Train
ALLLLL aboard this life bound train
The conductor has punched your ticket
Price paid in full
Down the rails you have lain
Flying down the tracks
Destination at the end of the line
Faster and faster as time flies by
There is no going back
Smoke and sparks on the silvery rail
No slowing or stopping
On this line called life
Towards the sunset we sail
Living life along the way
Some will get on
As this locomotive churns by
Others depart on their final day
Pulling into the station at the end of the line
Family and friends there to meet us
With arms wide open
At the stop called Heaven for all time
