The Automobile of Life |
Some people are just like an automobile |
They’ll run fine when every thing is right |
When the roads are all clear and the weather is fine |
And there’s plenty of sunshine and light |
But often they come to a wash out |
And then get stuck and have to detour |
Maybe a break in the casting will prove |
They never were built to endure |
Get plenty of water and plenty of oil |
And the best gasoline you can find |
Have the engine tuned up and look out for your breaks |
You’ll have some hard places to climb |
Look out for the tires for the blowouts will come |
On a dangerous curve deep and neigh |
But if you’ll let Jesus take hold of the wheel |
You’ll make it to heaven on high |
Some auto’s are painted and polished so bright |
They sell for more than they are worth |
And some people think their profession |
Will do stop short of the bibles new birth |
Just start up your engine and then |
You can tell if the thing is hitting on six |
For if you depend on the looks of the car |
You’ll be in a terrible fix |
Now all our profession’s of powder and paint |
Though lovely upon the outside |
Won’t answer to God for He looks on the heart |
It matters not how hard we’ve tried |
So if you are stuck in the quicksand of sin |
And wondering and floundering about |
Just let God’s great engine of glory and grace |
With a cable of love pull you out |
Get plenty of water and plenty of oil |
And the best gasoline you can find |
Have the engine tuned up and look out for your breaks |
You’ll have some hard places to climb |
Look out for the tires for the blowouts will come |
On a dangerous curve deep and neigh |
But if you’ll let Jesus take hold of the wheel |
You’ll make it to heaven on high |
