Prayer-Hymn
Life's Railroad to Heaven
M. E. Abbey                                                                                                                                Charles D. Tillman

1. Life is like a mountain railroad, With an engineer that's brave;
2. You will roll up grades of trials; You will cross the bridge of trials;
3. You will often find obstructions; Look for storms of wind and rain;
4. You will roll across trestle,         Spanning Jordan's swelling tide,

We must make the run successful, From the cradle to the grave;
See that Christ is your conductor   On this lightening train of life;
On a fill, or curve, or trestle,           They will almost ditch your train;
You behold the Union Depot           Into which your train will glide;

Watch the curves, the fills , the tunnels; Never falter never quail;
Always mindful of obstruction,       Do your duty never fail;
Put your trust alone in Jesus;          Never falter never fail;
There you will meet the Superintendent, God the Father, God the Son;

Keep your hand upon the throttle,  And your eye upon the rail.
Keep your hand upon the throttle,  And your eye upon the rail.
Keep your hand upon the throttle,  And your eye upon the rail.
With the joyous plaudit,                  "Weary pilgrim, welcome home."

Chorus
Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us, Till we reach that blissful shore,
Where the angels wait to join us     In Thy praise for ever more.     

I pray this song as my prayer. In Jesus name. Amen.

A Threshing Floor

A Threshing Floor In the ancient world, farmers used threshing floors to separate grain from its inedible husk (chaff) by beating it with a flail or walking animals on it—sometimes while towing a threshing sledge. Sledges were fitted with flint teeth to dehusk the grain more quickly. Other workers would turn the grain over so that it would be evenly threshed by the sledge.
