never heard of either of those
Didymus, you're kidding? I can understand never having heard "God Save the Pope", 'cause it's an old pre-Vatican II job unknown even to most of today's Catholics, but "Life's Railway To Heaven" is out there everywhere---heck, even the Statler Brothers recorded it!

"Life is like a mountain railroad
With an engineer that's brave;
We must make the run successful
From the cradle to the grave;
Watch the curves that fill the tunnels,
Never falter, never fail;
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eye upon the rail.

O Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us
Till we reach that crystal shore,
Where the angels wait to join us
In Thy grace forevermore!"

(It's best done with guitar, mandolin, and banjo, fiddle and piano optional. Just think of Bill Monroe and the Foggy Mountain Boys. :) )

Another fave of mine is "Guide Me, O Thous Great Jehovah".
